I have seen this nurse consistently over the last couple of years and I am always happy when she is working on days that I visit.

Melissa has been my primary provider for about 14 years. I see her regularly for all check ups and prefer to see her for illness. She is very knowledgeable and up to date on medical information. She excels at taking the time to listen and focusing on my questions or concerns. My only down side to this practice is that it is difficult to get a same day appointment for an illness because her schedule fills quickly.
