David C.
PA, Jon Thelen was excellent
Jim K.
The receptionist was very nice and helped document my issues for Callie Hart and made an appointment for me. My meeting with Callie was excellent listening to my history and developing a plan and followup for my chronic problem. Callie was a big help discussing my suggested alternative options I posed to her and one option worked for me Thank God. I appreciate Callie being on my care team. She is very competent and caring. Callie Hart is simply the best.
Karen P.
The Dr. took her time and answered all my questions. She was great!
Suzanne C.
I was checked in within a few minutes of my scheduled appt. and then my vitals were checked, med list, and blood pressure. Very nice young woman. Then I saw the PA and she followed up on the last time I had seen her with the pain in the left side and the report of the X-ray which she shared with me. She scheduled a follow up and provided a new Rx. I have samples, if they work then I am to call and let her know and she will the new Rx. That is about it!
Kathy L.
