Patient Reviews
May 28, 2020
I have been seeing Dr. Bottum for more than 10 years. We have excellent communication and she is a great partner in my healthcare. When she has suggestions, we always discuss things like benefits, possible side effects, any long term effects, and ultimately the decision is mine. I research everything and she banks on that. I also understand that she always gives every patient the same amount of time with them in the room, so if she is running behind, she has given someone who needed her a bit more that day, more of her time. I don’t worry because I will still get my 30 minutes. She really cares about her patients and it shows. She tends to prescribe older, well tested medications with proven results, rather than something that just got FDA approval or was just seen on TV. In summary, Dr. Bottum is a genuine person who is kind and caring.
