Excellent bedside manner. I felt like my Dr really listened to my concerns

November 17, 2025

I would like to say that by experience today exceeded all of my expectations. My nurse was amazing. Wonderful she made me feel so safe heard and comfortable. My doctor did the same. He gave me so much information that I had not heard before he made me feel comfortable in my decisions and future care with him. I don't believe I've ever had such a wonderful experience at a doctors visit before. I can't even express the gratitude I feel for having this type of care.
