September 8, 2025Leah K.Verified patient
Very welcoming and friendly!
July 31, 2025Dwayne M.Verified patient
My initial visit was wonderful! I never felt that she was in any way rushing through my appointment. She asked lots of questions to fully understand my overall health and to provide me with information.
I'll be going back for a follow-up appointment next week. Since her schedule was full, she offered to see me outside her typical office hours to ensure that I was seen.
I walked out of the office after this initial meeting believing that she truly cared about her patients. This was so refreshing given my experience with my prior PCP.
