Dr. Smith is always thoughtful, intelligent and a great listener. She always ends by asking, " Is there anything else you wanted to ask me?'. This is a very helpful reminder.

Dr. Smith is knowledgeable about ehlers danlos syndrome and hypermobility. I don't have to explain it to her every time I come in. I really love that about her. She has also been really understanding about my transition starting hrt and top surgery. Not to mention how helpful she's been in figuring out my FMLA paperwork.

The medical assistant who took my weight and my vitals and recorded the reason for the visit was AMAZING. She was so incredibly kind, caring, helpful and sensitive. I told her how I had missed my bus stop and had to a mile to the bldg, & she was so empathetic and brought me 2 cups of water. She was an absolute Angel. She deserves so much praise.

The provider is overbooked. Every time I've seen her she's been rushed. I'm sure she's a great doctor if she just had the time to spend with her patients.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Smith was thoughtful and attentive. Thank you! (As was the nurse.) I have a high deductible insurance plan and this routine preventive visit was charged at $500. I am waiting to hear back from their billing specialist about more appropriately coding the visit.

Dr Smith is very thorough and helpful. The time I have is always a bit short, so I need to schedule appts more often so we can keep up, especially when urgent matters come along, we need to be caught up on everything else.

This was the first visit with this provider due to previous doctor retirement. I liked this doctor and she was very professional and knowledgeable. I will adopt her as my new primary care doctor.

All of my questions and concerns was addressed. We discussed my medical records & presentations, this made me feel very proactive in my health care.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
This provide didn't listen to me about things I'm trying to manage my pain. She also posted in correct comments in the after visit notes in my chart that are NOT true what so ever. She stated that I am not interested in trying alternative things to try and manage my pain. That is NOT true. I had REPEATEDLY told her that I try SEVERAL different things along with taking medication. So I feel that this provider needs to correct those statements in my chart. Also I will be recording all future appointments with this provider so that this does NOT happen again.

Dr. Smith & her staff are always professional & thorough. The CMA neglected to sanitize the thermometer between patients & then put it down on a tray to be used again.
