Dr. Black was a very, very, very exceptionally good doctor. My visit with her was not rushed and she listened intently and also gave me some really great pointers and she seemed really interested in my health, also in my journey that I'm starting for weight loss, as well as my progress in the future. She really is a great doctor and her assistant, Donna, I enjoyed meeting her and she also helped me to feel very comfortable so that I was able to be very transparent with Dr. Black.

Whatever issues that I had after the follow-up, after the initial visit was resolved by the staff and management. So I appreciate that, you know, I appreciate the team and their efforts to resolve whatever issues that I was having with my own health concerns. So I do like to acknowledge that. And I will give an opportunity still, but I appreciate the fact that they were able to listen and not judge.

Dr Black was great as was her assistance Kia. The wait was long (30 minutes) - I didn't see the doctor as fast as I would have liked. But it was well worth the wait. I am so impressed ny Dr Black's attentiveness and knowledge.

Hi, I feel like it was very user friendly and the instructions that you all provided in terms of how to connect from a television, television was extremely helpful.

Dr. Black was great! She spent time w/me to explain my goals. She explained the medication & how it works as well as making any necessary changes in future. We set a plan to track my nutrition & exercise & will see what next steps are needed at my visit in six weeks.

Dr. Black was a very, very, very exceptionally good doctor. My visit with her was not rushed and she listened intently and also gave me some really great pointers and she seemed really interested in my health, also in my journey that I'm starting for weight loss, as well as my progress in the future. She really is a great doctor and her assistant, Donna, I enjoyed meeting her and she also helped me to feel very comfortable so that I was able to be very transparent with Dr. Black.

I am so appreciative of Dr. Shanekkia Black and her office. I am new to Georgia and I found her. And from the moment I called the office, from the secretary, Takara, all the way down to the assistant, everyone had love, compassion. They had patience with me and they were very concerned with me. I am so grateful and thankful to have met Shanekkia Black and her team. And I'm honored and they motivate me to want to be great. I'm honored and I'm very blessed.
