WebMD

"In less than 1 year I have had 2 providers (whom I was to see) leave the practice and I have been told to find another physician. ... it has left me without the continuity of care I needed."

LocalityBiz

"Dr Henderson is AMAZING. She cares, like really cares. She takes her time... However, I have had billing issues with the office that upon my 3rd call to have them fixed, the office coordinator was extremely short with me and rushed me off the phone."
