Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Patterson really listens to you as a patient.
For the first time I don't feel dismissed nor are my concerns. Dr Patterson listens, diagnosis and explans in terms that I understand.

LOVEEEE!!
As an adult, I've had a few primary doctors but never felt completely heard until I found Dr. Patterson. My first visit I came with a list of issues/concerns. Previous doctors, if I came in with more than one concern, they'd only focus on one. Dr. Patterson listened to me explain what was going on with each concern and then went back over each one and addressed them. I feel safe in her care, the first time ever in my adulthood. Grateful I found her!!

The BEST!!
I'm 73 years old and Dr. Patterson is the best doctor I have ever been under the care of. She listens to your concerns, and descriptions of ailments and gives vital advice and medication if needed. She shows sincere care and sympathy and never rushes through your appointment as my previous doctor did. She has been such a blessing to me and I hope she will take care of me for the rest of my life. No way I'll change!!! Also, her staff are all so kind and show genuine concern and at the same time are very professional in their work. Love them all!!

Dr Patterson was my doctor for over 13 years. After moving it was quite a drive to get to her office so I began searching for a new doctor. I have had no luck finding a doctor where I feel like family when I go in. I am planning to go back to Dr "P" even though it is a long drive for me. I can say from real experience-having seen several other doctors-that she is well worth the drive!

If you like a doctor who quits you, when you have an infection and after 12 years of seeing him then she is your doctor.

My Husband and I have been patients of Dr. Patterson since the beginning of 2006. She is one of the most caring, patient, understanding, doctors we have ever had! My husband died suddenly a outlets months ago and their office was one of the first to express their condolences! And that meant a LOT to me. Dr.Patterson will give you all the personal attention she is allowed per patient and really listens to your concerns, takes your situation into consideration! She is AWESOME! GIVE HER A CALL
