Patient Reviews
Nov 01, 2023
I have been going to Dr. Howe for over 20 years and she has always been 100% in regard to care, medical knowledge, conversing with me and letting me know what I should or should not do. I was in the hospital for another issue in 2006 and she even came to see me. That is what going beyond care means. I went in for rheumatoid arthritis and since I have been taking the RX she prescribed I have not had problems. I recommend her 100%.
