Patient Reviews
Jun 24, 2024
He really listens he doesn't rush n he made sure I understood everything about my stomach disease. He gave me all the meds I needed to start improving even when I ran out of things n called they would call me back within an hour n say come pick up ur rx. I hate he doesn't take my new ins otherwise I would still be there. Am scared to see this new Dr, Smith his reviews are terrible. Oh, he even saw me for free when my ins cancelled, who does that? Highly recommend Dr Persons n his staff, great job guys
