Patient Reviews
Feb 25, 2016
I have been seeing Dr. Cotton for years. He is very personable. The new Nurse Practitioner is very personable and professional as well. They do have some new staff changes which I expect at some point when seeing a pediatrician. There was a transition I think that had to do with getting the new staff trained fully. But I am still very pleased with the office and the staff. Everyone is very friendly.
