Verified patient
I would never visit her again. The only reason why I saw her was because my doctor was out and I had an urgent issue. She didn't even see me for me than 2 minutes. No conversation, no compassion, no bedside manners, nothing! I was in pain during a biopsy and she didn't even adhere to my cries. Just never again??
Great staff and doctors!

Verified patient
Dr. Carter is very kind and professional with great bedside manners. Only complaint I have is every time I see her I feel rushed and don't feel like I can sit there and ask the questions I want to ask. Other than that I would highly recommend her.
I should have asked when I made the appointment, what the Well Women's exam consisted of. My previous doctors did a urinalysis, blood work and the exam. They did not do the urinalysis and I had to ask about blood work and go back the next day.
Verified patient
Dr.Carter was amazing. I've had other obgyns and she is the best . She took the time to sit and explain and assure me i wasn't weird and that everything will be okay .
