I was a cash patient. They got me in right away. Found out what was going on, gave me a reasonable price and did exactly what they promised. I highly recommend.

Dr. Odell is very caring and took the time to understand my concerns. His staff went above and beyond to get to know me, my medical needs, and how they and Dr. Odell could help me with certain medical issues. I don't usually write reviews but I wanted to express my gratitude and share my positive experience.

Friendly Doctor! Yes, he's old, but great at what he does. I had my annual physical and was in and out in 45 minutes!
Verified patient
He was impatient, impolite and a bad listener. I'm not even willing to go back to get my test results.
I was very happy with this first visit he relieved a lot of anxiety.

In all ways first rate.

Ever one was great and caring.
Verified patient
My appointment was scheduled by 2pm. and I was worry because I had to come back to my office. But They were strictly on time. Tracy the nurse is absolutely professional, kind and loving person. Dr. Odell has a lot of expertise. I highly recommend the Odell team.
Verified patient
If you're the kind of person who has been following the news and thinks that all medical professionals have sold their souls to become executioners for the welfare state then Odell is probably not the doctor for you, since he confirms all your suspicions. If you're chronically ill and need a certain medicine to stay alive, don't expect Odell to make you feel secure that it will be prescribed to you. Rather he'll try to use your medical needs to blackmail you into getting a physical. Does this sound just the way you think a doctor should behave? It figures. You're all sheep being led to the slaughter.
Verified patient
This was my first visit with this physician. I found he and his staff to be professional, knowledgeable, helpful, courteous and sensitive to my medical and confidentiality needs. I highly recommend this physician to everyone in need of a primary health care provider/general practitioner.
Verified patient
Doctor is very knowledgeable
Verified patient
Hardly present during my appointment, so much so that I thought the nurse was my doctor!!!! By the time he came in, he walked so slow and so keeled over I could hardly believe he was able to work.
fast, friendly and very helpful,
Excellent on attention and proffesional care
Verified patient
I just wanted a simple physical exam. In my first visit to the office I was wold (at the office) I needed labs and exams. Annoyed, I came back for a second exam and was locked out of the office for two hours following my appointment start. After that time I decided I would just see another doctor.
I came on ZocDoc looking to get a physical (it has been a couple of years). I found his staff & office to be above average. My physical was mostly with his Nurse of P.A. and she was wonderful, extremely polite and made me feel comfortable. Dr. Odell came in to go over my blood work and was personable, helpful, and knowledgeable. Would recommend based on my experience.
Verified patient
He appears to be a well experienced, competent and kind doctor who really listens to and is present with his patients. I felt that I would be truly and competently taken care of under his guidance and care. The entire staff were warm and caring.
Verified patient
Very knowledgeable and followed up on everything
Verified patient
Most of my time was spent with the nurse practioner and Dr. Odell spoke to me for a few minutes. I did not have any chronic illness or sickness going into my appointment. However, my lab tests were interpreted by the office and discussed with me, all my questions were answered, and I came away equipped with new information and better ways to manage my health. Overall, it was a terrific visit.
Verified patient
Dr. Odell is highly competent, an excellent diagnostician and an outstanding internal specialist. He should be highly recommended.
Dr. Odell is great. He took me in right away. He took care of my problem in one visit. Without doing all kinds of test that weren't needed.
It was very pleasant
