Verified Patient Reviews for Dena Howerton, MS, APRN, CNM
The nurse Jessica and midwife Dena were very warm and welcoming. They answered our questions and showed interest for our care and wellbeing. The reason I give a 4 is because the appointment did start 40 mins after my set time. However, the experience of the appointment was so thorough that it was worth the wait!
Dena was amazing. Made me feel comfortable and happy. She answered all my questions, was very patient, and just made me feel at ease.
Dena spent about 30 minutes with me truly listening to my concerns and I never felt rushed or dismissed.
She was knowledge and is taking care of my problem.
Finding the clinic in the hospital was confusing. Parking way out and poor signage - no signage.
