This is a very clean, spacious office. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Dr. Hunter explained everything and is very nice and knowledgeable.
Dr. Hunter was so patient and kind with me, even through my sobs about what my previous providers visits and IUD removal/insertions were like for me. I was very anxious and scared and she was firm, straight to the chase, and well-informed. She was also quick and efficient. I'm thankful that I scheduled with her and will see her again.
I'm not able to take care of my annual exam and mammogram at the same time.

I had an unusual experience happen while waiting for my name to be called. The nurse comes out and calls my name (I am positive she said my full name). I get up when the front desk receptionist points to another person and tells me to sit down. About 5 minutes later this same receptionist calls my name and requests I follow her back to the patient area. I was told that the patient they took back when my name was called was the wrong patient. My concern is why did it take them so long to come to this realization? Was the nurse discussing my medical record with this patient and then realized it was the wrong patient? The staff should be verifying your name with you as they are taking you back into the patient area instead of just asking "How are you today". I find this situation to be very concerning!
