Patient Reviews
Jun 24, 2024
Called last night because my daughter was in tears with a stomach ache. I was prepared for the usual bacterial, viral, what did she eat conversation. But this doctor's questions were 'when' did she last eat, can she jump up and down? Sent us to the ER to get her appendix tested and told us to make sure the ER has certain equipment to accurately test her so we didn't go and waste time. She was right, it was appendicitis. They caught it early. That was last night and today she is resting from surgery on her way to recovery. I didn't sense any rudeness, just got to the point and I'm so grateful. If we hadn't gone in last night who knows if they would have caught it in time. Thank you Dr Books!

Board Certifications
What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
