Dr. Pendergrass and her team were outstanding! They far exceeded my expectations and I am so thankful to have net with them! Dr. Pendergrass specifically was a godsend to me. I have a condition I have been dealing with for over 20 years and have seen multiple doctors for, and no one could help me. She pinpointed the condition and diagnosed me immediately. I am beyond grateful to her!

Dr Pendergrass changed my life for the better and I don't know if there is any way to accurately express how grateful I am that she listened to me and advocated for me with my insurance company. I used to be in so much pain so regularly I had constant suicidal ideations. Now I'm getting ready to go back to school, providing for my family and volunteering in my community. I feel like I've been given a new chance at life.

The whole staff was amazing. They were all efficient and knowledgeable in their positions. The doctor spent a lot of time gathering information about my condition and doing tests that she thought was appropriate. She had a good comprehensive plan to move forward with my healthcare, which I greatly appreciated. She had, a plan for long-term solutions and something to immediately help my pain.
