Dr. James Harper, MD

I have had dizziness and pain in my scalp and balance problems. Dr Harper is not my doctor but he dug in my records more thoroughly than my former doctor. (I now hope to be a patient of his.) I had been told I had a concussion or vertigo. Went to neurologist who was dismissive. My diagnosis was Occipital Neuropathy. I felt seen and heard and Dr Harper was curious enough to explore whole picture.

I have been a patient of Dr Harper since 1989 (30 years). If it were not for Dr. Harper taking his time in discussing my immediate and extended family history at my 40 year old annual physical; I may not be alive today. He realized I am in need of being monitored for Cancer. He recommended a Colonoscopy right away instead of waiting until age 50 which was the recommended age. Three large Polyps were removed. I was informed most likely would have turned cancerous if I had waited to age 50 before having a colonoscopy. Dr. Harper has always treated my medical conditions to heal me not just medicate me forever. I get referred to specialist for treatment when required. Dr. Harper has always provided great health care with sound decisions. Dr. Harper has earned my full trust and respect! I do not know how long Dr. Harper will remain in practice; but I do know he will be my Primary Care Provider until he retires. Thank you Dr. Harper for your concerns in my health and great treatment.
