She was a little late but she did say she was sorry. She listen to me.
May 12, 2017Richard L.Verified patient
First appointment with this doc for a yearly physical. She’s very nice. However, I was a bit disappointed. Really didn’t ask me any questions related to diet or exercise. Only family history. Which only tells part of a health story. Advice to eat a low-sodium diet (especially without asking anything about my food habits) was a bit short cited. Will see her recommendations after my blood work but I’m not hopeful and will probably look for another doctor.

Rude and unprofessional. So disappointed because others said she was kind but she has terrible bedside manner. Also was completely unhelpful and the whole appointment felt like a giant waste of time.

She was friendly and patient. She reviewed my medical history carefully and provided helpful feedback. She conducted the exam gently.
