Sometimes I feel that my prescription has or does have a adverse impact on my body and my health issues. I want to be able to discuss my situation and concerns about my life and how it will help or hinder my taking care of myself. I have concerns about Metformin and my legs and feet about reactions for my balance and my feet . I already have alot of medical issues with my pelvis and lower back and sacrum. My actual balance is not going well and I am trying to exercise and my balance is not doing well even though I exercise.

Shots are unpleasant, but Dr. Did all she could to prep and warn me, local anesthetic helps.

It was my first visit with a regular western medical professional after a long time, having been treating myself alternatively for most of my life, using homeopathy, herbs and acupuncture to maintain my health, as well as a good diet, but with my current IBS for the past year, decided to seek a different perspective, and was pleasantly surprised at how easy and informative it was. She will be my PCP at this point for my Medicare Advantage insurance.

Dr Smith was caring and professional. Answered questions completely. Listened. Came up with a health plan and gave me a "to do" list so I would not forget the steps involved. I have started those steps. We'll see how it goes!

This visit with Dr Smith was an unusually rewarding experience. I found her to be an attentive listener and she had a calming affect on me. She addressed long term concerns I have had with direct solutions right away and set out a definite path for more help for me. I felt heard and respected and very much relieved to have had this appointment with her.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Smith seems to be in a hurry. She is intelligent, kind & well meaning and I feel rushed & confined to address only one health concern during appointments. The appointments are 10-20 minutes in length. I wonder if Dr. Smith is overworked.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Smith always listens carefully, provides understandable answers to questions and is genuinely concerned about my health and well-being.

This was a first appointment ever with this provider (doctor & clinic). There was a lot of medical info to cover and transfer. We accomplished a lot.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
The assistant or PA was not aware or had not read my current chart as I had just had A1c blood test done and the results were in my chart as I knew them, but thought she needed to do a blood draw until I said look at my chart it has been done. Perhaps your recent computer update was reflected in this, but she did have the kit ready to draw. Also the sphygmomanometer seems Vintage and not as accurate as my home device as I never see a diastolic as low as 64 (device or PA?)
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
she is a great listener
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
she got upset if ask about my left foot while we were talking about my right foot. I have several health problems but when I said I was thinking my heart was having trouble again, she listened, said no it sounds good. If you have any more then we'll do some further checking. What happens if it's a heart attack next?
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.

First visit - my previous doctor has retired. Comment re. wait time -- I was taken back about 1/2 past my appointment time. But I consider that a POSITIVE sign, because it tells me that patients are not being run through as if on a conveyor belt, and that the doctor would take the necessary time with me.

Dr. Smith is excellent. I feel it is a privilege to have her as my primary care physician.
Dr. Smith spent a lot of time talking with me about some memory issues I am having. She ordered a follow up test and spent a lot of time answering my questions and explaining possible next steps. She is very kind and put me at ease although we were talking about a difficult topic.
