Great bedside manner and very professional. Physicals are always awkward, but she made it very easy.
I recently moved to the Scottsdale area and have had troubles trying to find a helpful physician to use for my primary care needs. I had heard great things about Camelback Healthcare and thought I would try them out. Dr. Saunders was extremely helpful and had one of the best bed-side manners of any physician I've had. I've only seen her once but would 100% recommend her for someone looking for a new doctor. She explained every test she performed, answered all my questions, and provided additional feedback to my health needs.

Verified patient
I went in for my annual physical and wanted to address my sleep issues, i had also mentioned I wanted to discuss my anxiety concerns as well. My blood pressure was elevated because I’m in a brand new doctors office speaking with a stranger in a new place and I ended up being prescribed blood pressure medication and not being even spoken to about my anxiety/depression. Apparently I’m going to have to follow up on those concerns in two weeks when I go back for my next appointment.
Great!

Very precise and professional
I was disappointed in this facilities seeming unwillingness to help with my issues. I was told that they refuse to prescribe any sort of weight loss drugs of any kind because they have a weight loss program, which is not covered by insurance. I was also told that they do not provide any sort of mental health referrals as a rule. My girlfriend has an as-needed prescription for an antibiotic from a previous doctor that they also refused to fill. My overall impression is that this facility seems to have a lot of opinions about your healthcare and it's their way or the highway. Not exactly inviting..

When I was looking for a new PCP, I'd hoped to find someone who would take all of my existing health conditions into account. Today, Dr. Saunders showed me that that's exactly the kind of care she offers. She made me feel like I was the only patient in the world and that I was all that mattered to her in the fifteen minutes we spent together.
Verified patient
I loved Dr. Saunders! She treated me as a whole person, not just someone who was there to check in and leave. She recommended a few things that went above and beyond what she was supposed to do. Definitely would recommend!
Dr. Saunders was wonderful. Very attentive, patient and understanding. Felt very comfortable with her and her thoroughness. She has become my new to-go-to doctor.
Verified patient
Very friendly staff, overall office environment. Dr. Saunders was professional, comforting of my ailment & possible treatment options, and had my Rx sent to my local pharmacy while I was still in the office with her. I'm a huge fan of friendly efficiency.
Verified patient
Janis was completely wonderful, her Medical Assistants, however, were polite but under trained and unsure of their jobs-they were also not very professional in their appearance.
Dr. Saunders is undoubtedly the best physician I have experienced. At every visit, she shows utmost compassion and patience. Every physician should have the outstanding qualities that Dr. Saunders has. For anyone looking for a primary doc, look no further ..
Verified patient
Dr. Saunders is wonderful. She has saved my significant others life with her medical techniques. I would recommend her to anyone. We always look forward to our appointments with her because of positive attitude and great ideas. I hope we see her again soon.
Dr. Saunders always asks appropriate questions regarding my health. She is an excellent listener and always has excellent guidance we regard to my well being. I followed Dr. Saunders when she left FHFP. Previously, my driving time was 5 minutes; now it is 45 minutes. That should tell you something!
Verified patient
Doctor Saunders is amazing! She is quite possibly the first doctor I have met in my 36 years that puts forth the effort to get to know your history and you. I am excited to find such a great doctor!
Verified patient
She was rushed and would not address all my issues. She said only had time to deal with one thing at a time and I would have to make another appointment to address other health issues.
She knows her stuff!!
Verified patient
Janis took plenty of time and care when addressing my needs and issues. Felt comfortable and pleased with my choice when choosing a female doctor. Hope that my medical issues will be taken care of .
Verified patient
I LOVED the Dr. Saunders. She was so thorough and attentive to every detail I gave her. She listened to everything I had to say and gave me great information based on what I gave her to work with. She is very professional and wonderful.
Verified patient
Friendly and funny
Wonderful FIRST appointment but attempting to reach her to ask questions and schedule a second appointment.... let's just say I tried three different phone numbers, front desk, her assistant, and the front desk again and I NEVER got a call back.
The staff is very nice and professional. The medical assistance was just as great. The wait was a little longer than expected. But, when you see the doctor she gives you the time you need to discuss your health. She seems to really care and addressed all my health concerns. There are not too many doctors our there like Dr. Saunders. I will be staying with this doctor. .
I switched Dr's and was a new patient with Dr. Saunders, she was so pleasant and inviting, I was immediately comfortable and happy with my decision chosing her as my new MD. She was very knowledgeable and helpful giving great advice. I would highly recommend her!
Verified patient
Dr. Saunders was very thorough and made sure I knew her thoughts on my breathing and back issues. I have seen her twice after being hospitalized at PV Hospital, I would and have recommended her to my friends and family.
Verified patient
It was great. This woman really covered my overall health and made suggestions. I have some other appointments set up and she will now get copies of my lab results,
Verified patient
She is great. She treat you like she cares. Am a broken soldier trying work on my disability so that I can go back to work, she may me feel confident that she will help get back to work the right way.
Verified patient
She was very friendly and informative. I always get nervous about doctor visits but she made me feel like I have known her forever!! She was really concerned and made me feel important. Thank you doc.
Verified patient
Dr Saunders was very professional and efficient. I enjoyed being attended by her, and will definitely see her again. However the Reception staff was rude and impatient. I was handed over ( almost thrown through the window of reception ) with poor manners a questionnaire to be filled which I did. The two receptionist were talking about personal matter between themselves, and complaining about the amount of paper work they had to deal with. Personally I felt they were unprofessional. If they do not want to work in this Health Office, then perhaps they should stay away and look for a different type of work. Receptionists are the first persons you meet, and it creates a bad feeling about the place.
Verified patient
It was my first visit with Dr. Saunders and I made the appointment from reviews I read online. She was thorough, discussed my medical history, and made some initial evaluations and changes to my medications. I was pleased with the time she spent to get to know me and my history. I will be going back to see her as my new doctor. Anne
