Patient Comments

August 6, 2020Dr. Day is not my regular primary care physician, but was available to see me the next day so I scheduled the appointment with her. I was extremely impressed by Dr. Day. I felt very comfortable with her and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent primary care physician. She was very personable and spent plenty of time with me. She made me feel less anxious about the health concern I was seeing her about, and she referred me to a specialist. I have not yet heard from that specialist's office about scheduling an appointment though. Dr. Day said that if I did not hear from them in a week, to let her office know. She obviously cares about patients. I really like Dr. Day and would see her again any time my regular physician (who I think very highly of) isn't available.

November 23, 2019I am well pleased with this Medical Practice.
November 21, 2019Dr Day, MD, always knocks, opens the door with a beautiful smile. She asked how I been feeling, and went to her computer. She went over medications; asked about visit to Dr Namen, MD, and inquired if Dr Namen told me how long I would be taking Elqiuis, and my next appointment. We then discussed visit with Dr Hampshire. Dr Day then examine me, then ask me if I needed flu shot, which I received from Dr Namen. Dr Day always exhibits compassion, concerns, and what is best too, for a healthier future. Her expertise is extroidanary, and words could express all my gratitude.
November 21, 2019If your hospital can find a way to clone Dr. Day, do it. She is by far the best, most understanding, most compassionate doctor I have ever had. Don't lose her. She's a gem.
