"Dr. Laura McDowell was one of the best providers. She listened to my concerns and really made me feel like a person. I am so thankful for kindness and understanding as I was going through a very difficult experience."
— CentraCare Patient Review (2025)"Beware that you WILL be billed for an annual exam, despite the Affordable Care Act, which they find ways around... Then they use that to justify charging an office visit and double billing for the appointment."
