Fabulous appointment with Nurse Practitioner Maggie and Dr. Hartzog. They took time to fully discuss my problem and answer all my questions!
Always a wonderful visit. The staff is excellent.
Great interpersonal skills. Very professional and he actually assessed my body part, right knee with his bare hands. Unheard of in this day and age. He did not was his hands before or after he assessed my affected body part. He actually sat down and talked with me. He made a suggestion for treatment . He td me what to expect prior to performing the treatment. He didn't put on gloves. He didn't wash his has before or after my treatment in my view.Universal precautions are still in effect.He should has washed his hands before and after. I should have called him out and insisted that he wash his hands, that's how we prevent Infections, which is both our responsibilities. Any one reading this please be reminded that we need to take charge of our care. Don't be afraid to ask your provider to was his or her hands. We were reminiscing
Professional, caring, concerned about me.
