Patient Reviews
Oct 31, 2022
My journey with Dr Hightower has been amazing. I’m a nurse diagnosed with lymphoma. Though I’m very familiar with what was happening I just let go and followed her lead!! She listened and was very reassuring, answered all of my questions and my daughters questions!! Cancer is very overwhelming at times… I thank Dr Hightower for her patience and kindness as well as her staff!!

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