“She is an excellent doctor! She actually stays with you and listens to you, unlike the general doctors who spend 5 minutes with you and that’s all. She actually has an appointment with you. She is very nice and professional. I highly recommend her!”

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Scoon! Was very thorough, attentive, and made sure i felt comfortable throughout the entire appointment.
Dr. Scoon really listened to my issue and gave me multiple options to fix it. Was also really nice to hear a breakdown of what exactly was going on rather than just a general explanation.
I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

She is patient and thorough. I really like that she wants to find a cure for the root cause of the problem and not just treat the symptoms.
August 16, 2024Standley M.Verified patient
Dr. Scoon was very attentive while listening to my concerns regarding my health. She reviewed my medical history prior to my appointment with her. She did some tests while I as there and scheduled other tests to figure out what's going on. She doesn't play around, she listens and does whatever is necessary to treat my symptoms and find a cure. I would highly recommend this doctor!

Friendly and knowledgeable doctor
July 18, 2024Ayser A.Verified patient
I was in pretty rough shape with my asthma today but Dr Scoon was very helpful and a delight to work with. Her MA Wendy is a gem as well and even though the PFT was hard she made it bearable with her enthusiasm and passion.
June 21, 2024Claire R.Verified patient
Dr. Scoon and her medical team are extremely sweet, caring, and attentive. Dr. Scoon and her team really take the time to listen and understand. She really seemed to care about my health concerns and showed a strong desire to get to the bottom of my breathing issues and ailments. She even listened and offered solutions to some of the other medical issues I have had going on for a very long time. I wish ALL doctors were like her and her team. If more doctors were like her, I would not have some of the issues I have had for years now. I will be sure to come to her for all my pulmonary needs if ever needed in the future. I also trust her recommendations for other doctors I might need. I thank God I scheduled with her. I am really hopeful for resolution to my current breathing concerns and think Dr. Scoon will help resolve them. Her medical staff, such as the technician Ms. Wendy, who conducted my breathing test, is so nice, clean, and professional. May God bless her and her medical team!

Dr. Scoon was great. It’s rare these days to feel like a doctor actually cares to hear of your medical history and takes time to elaborate on potential factors and solutions to your problems.
It’s taken many years but in 1 appointment I have such a better understanding of my breathing issues than I ever have.
Looking forward to continued treatment by her.
June 21, 2024Mary M.Verified patient
She demonstrated excellent communication skills by providing clear explanations and actively listening to our concerns. This, combined with the friendly and professional demeanor of the staff, created a comfortable and reassuring environment for us.
June 14, 2024Bg S.Verified patient
Dr Scoon and staff exceeded my expectations. Dr Scoon has exactly bedside manner. I felt seen. None of my concerns were minimized. I was/am very ill. I’m grateful to be under her care as I go through this scary journey. I would recommend Dr Scoon to anyone I know that needs a pulmonologist.
June 13, 2024Alicia J.Verified patient
Dr. Scoon explained everything well and the wait wasn’t either. I didn’t feel rushed and she listened to everything I said and addressed all my concerns. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Great experience overall.
