Verified patient
She was too pushy to give me antibiotics . She didn’t even do a check up to see if I really needed it. Place looks very spooky and dark .
Ok so first off she was incredibly sick with a cold and kept wiping her nose with her fingers/palm and sleeves to then continue to touch me whilst coughing and nose running like a waterfall. Her office equipment looked like it came out of 1979 - not to mention the staff had no idea what they were doing with this old equipment that seemed to not even work. The way they gave me a breath test was to hold on to a chair next to a bundle of boxes into a machine. She barely took anytime to go over my results before sending me off to another doctor for another routine test she should've had equipment for in her office - but did not. Her office was a complete and total wreck. Papers everywhere, boxes all over the floor filled with open documents. Then she wanted me to come back and spend another copay to go over results that she easily could've called me about. Complete and total waste of time and energy.
Great she was very attentive.
Verified patient
Pleased with it.
Great Doctor

This was my first time seeing Dr. Samson and I really appreciate that she took the time to listen to my concerns. All of her office staff are very nice and I like being in and out of the office in less than an hour. I also had to change my appt last minute and they were very accommodating of that. Highly reccommend!
Verified patient
Very thorough, excellent experience all around.
Staff and Doctor are just wonderful.
Verified patient
Clear and organized communicator. Fancy area of town, waiting room great, examination room and her office are functional and clean, but crowded and unappealing. Office staff were wonderful. Med tech was friendly. I will follow up with her in a week - I liked that she made this plan with me - to see how I'm doing, and if meds are working. She had the office staff schedule the next appointment it right away.
Verified patient
She is very quick and doesn't really care about you. She always takes the safe side and tries to get you to come back for more appointments for more money in her pocket
Excellent bedside manner she is truly concerned for her patients well being. I also have to say she is very thorough & efficient I highly recommend her without a doubt.
Verified patient
Office staff was friendly when I first arrived. A young lady took my blood pressure and checked my pulse but I found it kind of odd she didn't introduce herself or address her role at the doctors office. She was dressed in normal clothes with a stethoscope around her neck but again didn't make any introductions. The doctor was very straight forward, I wouldn't say she wasn't friendly or unfriendly more business focused. The doctor did take the time to go through my symptoms and history and prescribe what she felt was best to get ride of the issue and "not put a bandaid on it". I will be seeing her again for a follow up next week which I do appreciate.
The receptionist was one of the most polite and pleasant receptionist I've ever met. Dr. Samson spent a quality of time with me and had a great bedside manner.
