Dr. Bowden has been my doctor as well as my late wife's. He has always been professional and yet we have always felt like he is a member of our family. I hope he can always be my family doctor.

Dr. Bowden communicates his medical advice clearly and concisely. He and I have developed some rapport and as such I do not experience any trepidation when discussing my healthcare needs. I appreciate his opinion and have little to no concern following his recommendations; he is an excellent physician.

Dr. Bowden had information from my blood work and went over each item with me from the tests and helped me determine what issues needed to be dealt with. He was very patient with me and explained why he thought I should start some medications.

I was the first appointment of the morning, I waited in the lobby to be called for 35 minutes because there was a substitute medical assistant and he never called on me, so I went to the desk and told them I had been waiting for 35 minutes and then he was told to call me Inside. I was not happy, had nothing to do with my dr.....it was the substitute medical assistants problem.

Dr. Bowden and his nurse are the sweetest! Now that I'm single parenting it I'm having to usually bring all 3 kids along to all appointments and they always acknowledge all 3 and entertain any questions or curiosity any of them have. That right there means so much to me! The kids have always loved Dr. Bowden and and actually look forward to going to the doctor for their check ups. I also love that Dr. Bowden actually takes the time to listen to any concerns I have with the kids and helps navigate to find solutions. He has always been a huge advocate for my kids and it's nice to have a doctor that listens and doesn't dismiss a parents concerns.

Dr. Bowden is always very thoughtful and informative. Our whole family enjoys working with him.

Discussed medications to be sent to pharmacy to treat this illness. Pharmacy never received prescriptions. Called clinic office and was told I had indicated to the Dr I did not want the medications. That is not true. When the Dr and I parted company I commented I would wait to hear from the pharmacy when the medications were ready to be picked up and he responded "yes." So I had to call the office this morning to figure out what was going on. Have had difficulties recently communicating with this Dr for refills. It took over a week for him to respond to a refill request. He has been a wonderful Dr until recently. Thinking of looking for a different physician.
