Verified Patient Reviews for Christine Hunter, MD
Everything went very smoothly and quickly. A little too quick, I felt a little rushed. They were able to fit me in to do a lot of catch up work which I'm very happy about and that I didn't have to make separate appointments for.
The staff were very welcoming and the environment was very refreshing!
Dr hunter was very through with all my questions
Dr. Hunter and the staff were courteous, attentive, and very professional. The only issue I had was that I had to wait 45 minutes after my scheduled appointment time to be seen.

I was glad to see there were larger gowns to cover with. The exam was fast. Dr. Hunter did not seem rushed even though it was fast. I am frustrated that I have to try to remember my entire 20 year history of dates of abnormal paps, hysterectomy, scoping etc. because of "3 EMR changes so things sometimes get lost or don't come over to the new system". That's pretty important history. I work in an office that has changed EMR and some of that history is pretty important to know or have access to. Much like knowing I shouldn't need a pap smear without my insides. I asked if I needed those records are they just lost and was told "well, we would have to dig for them and see what we have". It just caught me off guard. The rest of the experience was fine though.
I always feel "heard" and not rushed by Dr. Hunter. I have been her patient for 20 years, through all cycles of pre and post menopause. I find her to be thorough and caring.
