    Patient Comments

    • October 24, 2018Dr. Hunter was excellent - very compassionate and knowledgeable; We felt like our daughter was in excellent hands.
    • September 17, 2018We love *Dr. Hunter!! *Dr. Hunter is great! She doesn't rush you and takes time to answer your questions. She even called to inform me of my son's lab results. My son has down syndrome which is why I completed this survey for him.
    • August 7, 2018Dr. Hunter is always so nice and caring.
    • March 13, 2018Doctor Hunter and her team are fabulous! We love you all!
    • March 13, 2018My daughter was not prescribed any medication but it was offered. Dr. Hunter explained the medications to me. She gave me the opportunity after explanation to determine if we wanted to move forward with treatment. I really appreciated that. Dr. Hunter and her student were very kind and knowledgeable. They answered questions. They even spoke to my daughter, asked her questions, and allowed her to answer. What I really loved was, when it was time for the physical assessment, Dr. Hunter reiterated something that I enforce with my child. I have told my daghter that no one should look at her private areas other than myself and her Dr (When I am present). Dr. Hunter told her the same thing! I was very impressed!

    Why No Ratings

    Currently, not all doctor ratings and comments are available. The number of rated physicians will increase over time. 
    The more ratings a provider receives, the more accurate and statistically reliable the data is. Providers with less than 30 ratings may not have patient ratings listed on their profiles.
