Patient Reviews
Mar 03, 2021
My wife and I just moved to columbia and have had to find care quickly as I have a set of complicated medical issues which can act up at a moment's notice and I recognize I am not the easiest patient. She has been incredible. Helpful, easy to schedule, saw me same day when it was urgent. Minimal wait times, professional, friendly and the office staff was great and has excellent follow through when you have an issue which doesn't require a visit. She explains things thoroughly and provides you with options along with her opinion which seems a rarity these days with most practitioners seeming to only prefer the most aggressive or expensive route. It's been a welcome experience in our move and taken one thing off of what we needed to worry about. If you and your family need a doctor you need not look any further.
