“Dr. Bessie is an enthusiastic listener. She makes you feel like you’re the only appointment that day. She’s comforting, thoughtful, and genuinely so helpful! I’m so glad I found her last month for a freak exercise activity, and when I had concerns about my current medication management I knew she would be the right place to help.”

“I needed medical clearance for wearing a respirator at work. Finding a doctor that's able to do this is more difficult than I expected. I found Doctor Bessie and she was able to do this physical and she scheduled me right away. I was impressed that she knew the subject matter and terminology without me having to explain supplied air respirators or PAPRs or spirometry. She knew and understood what I needed, she handled all necessary tests and I had my clearance the following day. Beyond that, both her and her staff seem like nice, relatable, friendly sort of people; the kind of people you'd like to have as friends or neighbors. I will continue to see Doctor Bessie and I've already recommended a Co worker to her for the same issue I had to get addressed. ”

Dr. Bessie is a godsend! I used to have a primary care physician that was literally awful. Barely had a conversation, charged for a follow-up phone call, never laid a finger on me in 2 years. I found Bessie by serendipity and I was so relieved. Bessie was everything my previous doctor was not! Caring, took time, listened, and competent. Devin does a great job with all of the backend work of the office and is great with follow-up and communication. They are a phenomenal pair and I’m thrilled to have found their office. Highly recommend!!

I hadn't had a physical exam in two years and being 74 years old I decided to seek one even though I had very few complaints. The office visit was great. I never felt rushed. During an excellent physical evaluation Dr. Fairbairn detected a heart disturbance that was confirmed on an in house EKG machine. She also drew blood samples to send to a lab for analysis. Dr. Fairbairn referred me to an imaging facility for further analysis. Importantly, Dr. Fairbairn followed up with phone calls to discuss lab results and to make sure I got my imaging referral schedule. Walking Tree Family Practice gets five stars! Dr. Fairbairn truely cares.

From check-in through the annual exam, Walking Tree Family Practice was professional and caring. Dr. Fairbairn was thorough and attentive to detail from the physical exam to taking my health history. Nice to have someone focus on the patient and not on a computer screen. The convenience of the in house blood draw and EKG was so appreciated. Dr. Fairbairn is very knowledgeable, experienced and kind.

Geat experience from the minute I walked in the door! Calm, relaxing atmosphere. Front staff very professional, very polite and thorough. Took all information and explained my copay and insurance. Dr. Bessie was wonderful! Took the time to review medical history talking in length about medications and effects they had on me. Changed some regimes of meds for better treatment. I was very impressed with her knowledge and thrilled she listened to me! Geat office! Exceptional doctor, polite informative front staff! I highly recommend this office and will send family and friends their way!!

Bessie is patient, thorough, and kind. She strives for excellence and is amazing at what she does. You are not a number to her, you are an actually person and she listens and puts herself in the patients shoes. She is one of the best providers I have ever met and I work in the medial field. I have never met a more honest person.
