Was in and out. Gave me options for treatment. Seemed to care about me as a person, not just another patient.
Dr. Ferguson was great. However, there was a scheduling issue. I made my appointment on ZocDoc for 10:30am and received confirmations accordingly, but Dr. Ferguson's office somehow had it down as 9:30am. Because of that I was not able to be seen until almost 12:00pm noon.

Was in and out. Gave me options for treatment. Seemed to care about me as a person, not just another patient.

My visit with Dr Ferguson was great, and always is.
Dr. Ferguson was great. However, there was a scheduling issue. I made my appointment on ZocDoc for 10:30am and received confirmations accordingly, but Dr. Ferguson's office somehow had it down as 9:30am. Because of that I was not able to be seen until almost 12:00pm noon.
Excellent visit. This was my second yearly physical with Dr. Ferguson and she was wonderful and helpful. Glad she is my doctor.
Pleasant, professional, concise without being dismissive. Be aware, though, that the office does not receive the online ZocDoc paperwork thoroughly, so I had to re-do the forms at the office.
Great

She was efficient and thorough
Very thorough with everything that needed to be done. Listened to the problems I was having and has planned a great course of action suited to me.
Dr. Ferguson and her nurse were wonderful. Very attentive and matter of fact. The only downside is, as a new patient, I filled out all the forms on Zoc Doc, but then was told that I had to fill them out again at the office. I think having to duplicate my medical history pushed everything back. So, my appointment was at 11am, but I did not see the doctor until 11:50am. Had I known I was going to have to provide my medical history in the doctors office, I wouldn't have spent time doing it online, and I would have arrived for my appointment 30-40 minutes earlier.
I appreciated Dr. Ferguson's honesty and openness. She followed up with me two times regarding my appt and my need to visit the emergency room.
