I began seeing Dr. Williams because a friend referred me, having had success with weight loss with this doctor. Since I started seeing Dr. Williams, I've transitioned to having g her as my PCP. Because of her, I've lost 30 lbs. over the year, and am working to lost the last 20 to reach my ideal weight. I've found Dr. Williams to be compassionate and effective, not to mention thorough, in providing quality care for all my needs.
They are super professional.
I had a consultation with the Nurse Practitioner yesterday. I had to change providers due to new insurance, so decided to go to this clinic since it was closer to home. Kendra was amazing! She was very knowledgeable, professional and cared about my concerns. I am so glad that I decided to go here. I was really impressed with the clinic from the moment that I stepped in. Front desk was really nice; they immediately checked me in. Thank you for everything!
