“Dr. Teresa was amazing! She asked pertinent questions about my health history to ensure she could assess my needs accurately.”

“I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Attina and the staff. I have extreme anxiety when it comes to doctors. When I was seen by the nurse here I started crying because I was so anxious. It wasn’t their fault, I was just really overwhelmed. Everyone was so kind and understanding. The doctor really took her time to listen to me and my concerns. She took a thorough history, was non-judgmental, and made an action plan with me. I am so relieved to finally find a doctor who cares and who listens. Thank you!”

I had a great 1st visit. Dr. Attina is very attentive and professional. I felt awkward due to my reason for visiting, but she made me so comfortable that it became an after thought. I really enjoyed the entire visit and thought it would be hard for her to live up to her rating, but in my opinion she's a 5 star doctor, I found a new primary.
