Always good..my Dr is wonderful as is his staff

  Mar 29, 2023
Dr. Roddy exemplifies everything a physician should be. His approach seems to be that his primary goal is to treat his patients as he would treat his most cared-about person. That Is my take away. He Is entirely professional, knowledgeable, and caring. He listens intently to my questions and concerns. He speaks in an easy-to-understand manner - and never acts as if anything I am experiencing is trite. In a perfect world - every new doctor coming out of medical school - should have the privilege to work with him - and, if they were smart - would be savvy enough to learn exactly how they should pattern their career - with each patient being treated as a human being who has entrusted their care to that doctor. Everything starts at the top. His staff appears to "like" to work for him - which speaks volumes.

  Mar 29, 2023

Dr Roddy and all of the office staff are excellent.

Dr. Roddy was running behind by 40 mins., so he was in a rush to catch up. I just wish he had given me 10 more mins. I was there for my med check & lab results & he covered that issue well. No time to ask about another issue.

Dr Roddy should be cloned! He is the rock star of doctors. I travel 78 miles round trip to continue with his care. When Dr. Roddy first came to LSC, I was in a meeting with the Nursing managers.

Dr. Roddy is always on top of my health situations, this last visit I could tell he was very concerned about my symptoms that that I conveyed to him. [detail removed for patient privacy] In other words, I don't feel any other physician could have been more attentive to my medical condition or could have given me better care.

  Aug 19, 2022
Dr. Roddy is awesome! I was his last appt of the day and he spent almost an hour with me. I was there for a Diabetes follow up but was also just 6 weeks post hospital discharge for a kidney stone and sepsis so visit included all aspects of my health, answered all my questions, made really helpful suggestions, like getting a medical alert bracelet saying I've had recurrent sepsis with kidney stones.Then he called me at home the next day, today, a Saturday, because he'd hadn't seen an abnormal lab addressed in my hospital discharge summary, checked my lab history which indicated I intermittently had a low platelet count, and ordered a STAT lab for me to get Monday and is requesting a specialist referral. He is taking great care of me!.Dr. Roddy Is also able to explain why another Legacy department's decisions about my care (which have upset me) might have been made the way they were. It doesn't come across as defensive or in any way dismissive of my concerns. He's done this both this visit and an earlier one. It's hard to explain but I leave both feeling really heard, but also reassessing "my" take on what I perceive as a negative medical care experience with a different understanding of why what happened, might have happened the way it did.

  Aug 17, 2022
Dr. Roddy is the best ever - attentive, responsive, knowledgeable, thorough ready to consider & evaluate new information or ideas.

  Aug 17, 2022
My one and only complaint was time waiting in exam roomI understand medical care can have unexpected situations,I would have liked to be informed that a situation would cause my wait to be longer than usualI would understand and make myself comfortable rather than sit with few cloths waiting
