Patient Reviews
Feb 26, 2021
I have been very sick & was referred to Dr. Averette for care & treatment. He saw me right away, did an EGD, & got me on the road to recover. He was kind & professional. He answered all my questions & never rushed me. I highly recommend him to anyone in need. I’ve been a nurse for 20 years so that’s saying something!
