In patients' words

"He takes time..he MAKES time for the patient's concerns... His verbal and overt behaviors show he cares."

— Patient review for Dr. Paul D. Curtin

"Although very friendly and meek, Dr. Wallen is not competent as a medical professional. She brushed aside my concerns, and I had to diagnose myself."

— Patient review for Dr. Beth Wallen

"Nice guy. Did not read chart before seeing my daughter. When I read the after visit summary it showed he didn’t pay much attention to what I said."

— Patient review for Dr. Jonathan Kinley
