This was my first visit with this doctor. I was looking for a new PCP. I like Dr. Waters very much and plan to continue to see her as my PCP. She ordered some tests for me that were due and was quick to respond with results and explanations for any anomalies. She has ordered more tests based on the initial results and has been very good about keeping me informed. I am very happy I found her.

(5)
7/1/2024

I know doctors are busy and asked to do too many things! I feel like I never know next steps. It's like you can only do one thing at a time in one appointment. I always want to ask: and then what? We run a test and then what?

(5)
7/1/2024

Dr waters is a great doctor who is very patient, understanding and caring. She listens, advises and truly makes you feel cared for. She is the best. The phone system and process needs a lot of work. It is impersonal, long and the commercials need to be toned down.

I'm a new patient and I really like Doctor Waters...I might have to wait longer in her office... But I don't mind if it's not real long... Doctor Waters is a good doctor and I feel she cares about her patients.

Dr. Waters is very nice sometimes I think she gets overwhelmed I usually have to send a text or call about results of tests plus I have to usually have to ask when I should come in again my old doctor wanted every 6 months. I understand it's hard to get good help.

(5)

Dr Waters is one of the best doctors I have had, she listens and is compassionate. I feel that her workload is way too heavy.

(5)
4/1/2024

Great doctor. Her new nurse has also great. Super efficient.

(5)
4/1/2024

Dr. Waters is a very patient and compassionate doctor. It is the office staff that I have a hard time with because the message does not get relayed to the doctor unless I called three or four times. Sometimes prescriptions are not called incorrectly due to the office staff not communicating effectively with the doctor. Dr Waters is an outstanding doctor and she is always very efficient with my care

(5)

*** I truly liked Dr. Waters but the wait time was a bit much.

(5)
4/1/2024

She is a good provider, but sometimes appointments are rushed. She is very busy and cares about her patients. This last appointment was rushed. I felt the need to ask more questions. I should have been more aggressive

(5)

Dr. Waters is a credit to her profession and a blessing to all patients to whom she cares for. Her clinic is always extremely busy but she still gives each patient the time, attention and care that they need.

(5)
3/1/2024

I honestly think it isn't Dr. Waters' fault that I had a long wait time. She sees a large volume of patients every day and does not rush through visits just to maintain an "on time" record. She is extremely caring, thoughtful, and professional. She can't do anything about a shortage of providers and a large patient population. I would much rather wait for her than see someone who would rush through a visit and not make me feel seen or heard. Let's not fault the doctors for showing up everyday and doing the best they can. The fact remains that there are far more patients than physicians.

(5)
3/1/2024

To start, the office staff is fantastic. Very friendly and helpful. The nurse that worked with me was incredible as well. I wish I could remember her name so I could specifically mention her by name, but she was phenomenal. She was very caring and helpful. She had to come back after the visit to give me a shot, and she was just as great to work with. Dr. Waters is great she takes time to listen and understand questions. ***

Due to bone on bone knees and weight issues I was unable to walk well or long and can't use wheelchair, so Dr. Waters very kindly came out to my van to see me. I was very grateful for her concern and willingness to accommodate my limitations. She went above and beyond my expectations and I am very, very grateful.

Everything is good except the wait time past your appointment.
