“Palm Primary was very easy to schedule with! Frances has a wonderful beside manner and makes sure each area is covered. The appointment did not feel rushed, and I look forward to maintaining my care with Palm in the future. ”

This was the fastest doctors appointment I’ve had while also getting the best treatment! It was so nice to not sit in a cold room for 45 mins and hope your doctor will listen to your problems. My issues were addressed and a plan has been implemented. Thank you!
May 13, 2025Sydney B.Verified patient
Very efficient and sweet to me as I was late to my appointment due to getting lost in the hospital trying to find their location. (My fault not theirs). They treated me with kindness and got me checked in immediately. I loved every minute of my visit. The Doctor was very sweet and listened to what I had to say and tought both my husband and I and few things. I definitely recommend this office and will definitely be returning as well.
May 9, 2025breana A.Verified patient
Doctor Hodapp was great. The entire front office was unprofessional. They constantly talked about their guests in front of them, and while they had the appointment. To have someone talk about you while you’re in a vulnerable state, especially if you are on the clock is terrible work behavior. I would honestly recommend Doctor Hodapp, she was very nice especially in such a highly anxious appointment but the front office is just a terrible experience. Never go to them if you have any medical appointments, and it’s clear they’re just here for the pay. If you’re going to get a job as a front desk assistant, make sure your guests feel safe, apparently it’s soooooo hard. It’s already hard enough to make the appointments on the phone with them, that’s why I’d rather use ZocDoc.

I enjoyed my visit with Frances PA. She was a great listener and she asked questions that pertaining to my visit. She did not rush me or make me feel uncomfortable and made a few recommendations that I took to heart. She also had me scheduled av3 month appointment before I left.
March 18, 2025Patricia C.Verified patient
Unlike most Doctors I have seen, Dr Hodapp LISTENS. She knows that though I am not a doctor myself I DO have insight into what my medical issues are and she takes those insights into account.
February 23, 2025deserie H.Verified patientVideo visit
I visited the doctor due to experiencing tingling pain in my hands. The entire exam lasted about 12 minutes. PA Hodapp was punctual and asked questions regarding my health. After inquiries, PA Hodapp diagnosed me with carpal tunnel syndrome. She recommended that I obtain wrist braces and wear them during the day. This essentially concluded my visit. As a new patient at Palm Primary Care, my expectations for this health visit were not met. PA Hodapp's determination that my hand tingling was caused by carpal tunnel syndrome was based primarily on observing me touch each finger to my thumb. No wrist x-ray, MRI, other physical examination, Carpal Compression Test, ultrasound, or electromyography was conducted or scheduled. Although I may be mistaken, I expected tests related to my tingling nerves. During the exam, I did not undergo any other tests that seemed specific to my nerve issues. After leaving Palm Primary Care, I was uncertain about my next steps for treatment and pain relief.

October 23, 2024Frances L.Verified patient
Really friendly staff, was seen quickly. Frances was so friendly and helpful. She talked through all of my concerns and I felt heard and considered the entire visit. I just moved to the area and finding a PcP has been stressful but I’m thankful to find her! The only complaint is that the office was inside the hospital but the front desk helped me find it super quick.
October 18, 2024Tobie Shea C.Verified patient
PA Hodapp was great and listened to all my needs and gave answers to them. Would recommend if you are looking for a PCP and are looking for a different one or am like me, and have not been seen by a PA or Doctor in a while!
