Warm welcome on arrival and immediately checked in to see my doctor at the appointed time. Everything went fine with a complete examination. My examination required blood work after finishing doctor which was immediately done. The total experience was professional, pleasant and time efficient.
Dr. Sistrunk has been my doctor for several years now, and her care has been phenomenal. She is thorough, compassionate, and truly committed to her patients’ well‑being. She has supported me through challenges with blood pressure, fibroids, and iron deficiency, and offered invaluable guidance while I was caring for my late mother. Her focus on prevention makes her an outstanding physician! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a doctor who genuinely cares.
Dr. Sistrunk has been my doctor for years, after I bounced around for some time. She is thorough and serious about my health, and engages me as a partner in thinking through recommendations tailored to my specific medical needs and preferences. Unlike other doctors, I’ve never felt unheard or unseen. The most challenging thing about the office used to be the administrative issues with checking in and out, but now those processes are a breeze, with automation and a consistently friendly staff. I highly recommend.
