Patient Reviews
Mar 03, 2024
Medicine as it used to be in the 80s.I call the office and I reach someone. I can make an appointment this week, not in 3 months. I see Dr. Ford at my appointment time, not 2 hours later. Dr. Ford listens to me, and encourages me to participate and ask questions. We discuss my treatment plan and I understand the what and why. Sometimes he’s aggressive in his care, sometimes conservative…but I understand the reasoning. Dr. Ford always asks me if I’m okay with his recommendations rather than just “telling me”. My billing account is always accurate. My prescription refills are handled by John in a timely manner. His office is just that, a doctor’s office…not a “clinic”. Dr. Ford’s referrals to specialists have always been quality clinicians. I’m running out of characters, so I’ll leave you with my unqualified recommendation.
