In patients' words

"I absolutely LOVED my doctor (Dr. Ellen Hopper). She is kind, she listens to everything you say... One of the biggest complaints I have is that EVERY time I call to schedule an appointment, I try to explain to the scheduler whats going on and she interrupts me and puts me on hold."

Plastic Surgery Near You review

"Having been rushed through primary care appointments and my healthcare symptoms/concerns being consistently dismissed. Very frustrated and disappointed in the level of “care” provided, lack of communication, and compassion."
