Maybe she was having a bad day, but she seemed cold and uncaring, and perhaps a bit argumentative, and it took me by surprise. I will change providers if this becomes the norm. I am a friendly and respectful patient.

Dr.Sammond responded to a lot of information and questions regarding various concerns and history with clarity and helpful guidance.

Dr. Sammond and the staff did an excellent job. This is not the normal experience I have had at Legacy. It had been very poor during my last few visits (I even wrote a complaint that wasn't properly followed up on), with this latest one being the exception. Yesterday, The response regarding finding a time to have me come in, getting me through quickly and correctly, the interaction with Dr Sammond and having her prepare the prescription the way she did was excellent. I really appreciate it. Thank you

In addition to regular annual physical check-ups, Dr. Sammond saw me on an emergency basis last summer when I injured my knee.

She has always been thoughtful and thorough and very helpful with explaining concerns. I very much appreciate Dr. Sammond.

In case this isn't obvious from my responses, Dr. Sammond is the best medical doctor I have ever had. And this is from a person who has had a long history of holding a slight bit of distrust for Western medicine and the healthcare industry in this country more generally.
