Jan 28, 2022
For my initial appointment, I was impressed with Dr. Gaines's awareness of my medical history. From there, based on my medical history, she discussed with me a go forward plan both from a medical plan standpoint and from a lifestyle medicine standpoint. I also found her demeanor to be quite engaging. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Gaines for anyone seeking a Primary Care Physician.
