Kind, compassionate care… Attentive to my questions and answered them thoroughly… And best of all Dr Herring’s recommended protocol for handling my allergies has been very effective!
Great physician
Is a good doctor asked all the questions to make sure you’re getting the care that you need
Dr. Herring patiently explained all my questions about food allergies and listened carefully to help develop a comprehensive treatment plan for me. It was clear he stays abreast of current research and patient outcomes which is very helpful as well!
Had PA take notes so he knew all about me before he entered the exam room.
Professional minded. Answered all my questions quickly and accurately.
Absolutely love Dr Herring. Took my daughter whose is non verbal autistic to see him and he and his staff were exceptional with her. He explained everything and all options and really listened. Highly recommend him.
Very knowledgeable with great bedside manners. Terrell Williams (PPA) was a pleasure to work with.
He was helpful but made a comment about one of my health issues that was less than encouraging
Kind, compassionate, extremely knowledgeable and listens to the patient. A great visit.
