    Dr. Cole filled in for the medical assistant as she was tied up with another patient's needs at the time of my arrival. Dr. Cole remains the best primary care provider that I could ask for. Not only does she attend to my physical needs, but shows concern for how family issues may affect my well being mentally and gives sound advice on how to deal with all of it. She manages to retain information pertaining to issues beyond my chronic health condition. She has a holistic approach which I appreciate, and shows genuine concern for all of her patients. I know I can count on her for my healthcare needs. Dr. Cole is a real asset to Norton Healthcare.
