I could not be more impressed with Dr. Harker. So glad that I chose to have him as my primary care provider. This is the first time in years that I felt like a medical professional was actually LISTENING and interpreting what I was saying to them during the appointment. Such an excellent doctor. Very pleased. The world needs more like him.
February 22, 2021James H.Verified patient
It’s always scary to meet a new Dr for the first time. And with telehealth visits it’s almost harder. I was impressed with Dr Harker’s professionalism and compassion. He was very thorough and was considerate, taking as much time as was necessary to meet my needs. He is a good listener and I appreciate his recommendations. It’s so nice to be on the same page with a healthcare provider. His staff are efficient and on top of things. I was getting calls as soon as my appointment was over to schedule follow up.
January 28, 2021Mary Jo W.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr. Harker listens. He listened and considered everything I had to say and asked me multiple times during the appointment if there was anything else that was bothering me, anything at all. I truly appreciate that he was willing to take the time that was needed during the appointment. I never felt like he was trying to rush. This is a doctor who truly cares for his patients. I trust him.

Took time to hear me - learn a bit about me - first time visit so he needed a baseline. Super nice - easy to speak to - easy to ask questions of. I appreciated the time he spent with me and the ability to schedule me the same day that I sought an appointment.

I set up an appointment for frequent diarrhea. To say the least, it's an embarrassing thing to talk about. Dr. Harker talked to me about it in a way that not only mitigated my embarrassment, but made me feel comfortable talking about it. Moving forward, I'm glad I have him to talk about future problems with.

I was a first time patient today. Everyone was very friendly and professional! Front desk, nurses and X-ray tech were all great! Dr. Harker made me feel comfortable discussing my medical issues / history. He is very nice and knowledgeable. I would recommend him highly. After checking in and doing paperwork I waited less than five minutes to be taken back. And Dr. Harker came right in after getting my vitals taken. Very pleasant experience. My husband came back into the treatment room as well and was also impressed with Dr. Harker.
