Patient Reviews
Jul 28, 2022
Dr. Modwel is one of the few doctors left that is not driven by a large corporation seeking profits. She is caring and takes the time with her patients to understand their concerns, and subsequent diagnosis in a clear and understandable way. Didn't have to wait long for an appointment, short wait upon arrival at her office, and did not feel rushed once in the exam room. Her office was clean and her staff was pleasant, but not surprising since organization starts at the top. If all doctors rose to the level of care that Dr. Modwel offers, we would all be better off. Highly recommended on every level.
