Patient Reviews
Jan 18, 2023
We have used Dr. Cole for over 13 years, and have found him to be a very friendly, dedicated, and competent physician. He apparently reviews the files of patients the night before seeing them, and thus is prepared to offer the assistance they need. We have found his office staff and nurse practitioners to also be friendly and accommodating. He has called me at night to discuss treatment. In my opinion he is the best!
