    My whole surgery experience, including doctor visits in the hospital visits was extremely pleasant and pain-free. I'm satisfied that I chose Dr. Blackburn and Norton's.

    Claire takes such good care of me whenever I need to see her. I feel very lucky to have her on my care team. She's very easy to talk to and has always answered my questions. She is very approachable and thorough when it comes to my care. The whole office staff at the St.Mathers location has always been respectful and helpful when I have questions or need to make an appointment. I have referred several people to Dr. Robinson and Claire.

    Excellent care from start to finish. I walked in to make appt after an acute injury and was fit in for an appointment within 2 hours. The front desk staff are amazing. Ms. Watkins did a thorough history and exam. She ordered X-rays that were done immediately. She gave me a good plan of care and explanation.
