she is the best provider Optum has and should be treated and handled by staff with the UTMOST respect and not as if she's a disposable provider how I've heard staff speak in such manner.

Great experience.. office staff very friendly.. great bedside manner.. addressed all my concerns.. provided follow up details and appointment
September 11, 2025Kimberly S.Verified patient
Very friendly!! When I discussed all of my issues, she listened, validated it, and didnt waste a second to get the necessary tests done that would answer my questions. I've had little success with other doctors taking me seriously, and she did everything in her power to make sure that I was comfortable and affirmed
