Dr. Avery was great--he was very personable, took the time to listen to and answer all of my questions, seemed genuinely interested in my concerns and did a very thorough exam. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a primacy care physician.

He was very knowledgeable, honest and meticulous. He covered many more things that I was used to in a annual physical. He answered all my questions and made sure that I left with an understanding of his assessment.

Great guy. Very inquisitive. Wasn't trying to rush me out the door. Front desk staff was also very helpful and very friendly.

I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Avery because he was one of the few physicians that had a same day slot available. One of the main negatives about the visit was the wait time; nearly an hour in the waiting room and roughly another 30 minutes between being seen by the MA & the physician. His bedside manner was okay. He completed a thorough assessment but made a few inaccurate assumptions along the way. Overall, I think he's a decent physician.
