My chart needs to be maintenance better. There are a lot of technical issues with it making very difficult to access lab works and reports appropriately. It appears to glitch and freeze a lot and I have been able to complete registrations for visit and properly view lab works and notes from my physician.

My initial visit with my new primary care physician was not a pleasant experience. My appointment was scheduled for 3:20 p.m., but I was not seen until close to 4:30 p.m. There was no apology or acknowledgment for the long wait, which I found disappointing. Additionally, I was uncomfortable with some of the comments made during the visit. It was implied that my previous primary care provider may have been overly aggressive or even incorrect in prescribing medication for my pre-diabetes and the referral to a nephrologist. I was also confused by remarks suggesting that patients have requested physicians to "fudge" diagnoses for weight loss purposes. These statements left me uneasy and uncertain about the tone of the conversation. Overall, I left the appointment feeling discouraged rather than supported. On another note, the examination room where i spent the majority of my wait was not well dark, no sunlight, it had a depressing and dungeon appearance. When receiving my COVID and flu vaccines I was concerned about lighting for the nurse administering the vaccinations.

- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/8/2025
Nothing more to add ... all services (from check-in, to vital checks & the questionnaire portion, to the doctor's examination) were above reproach. It is evident that Dr. Williams has her staff in the perfect mindset when dealing with patients ... KUDOS to Dr. Williams and her entire staff

When I first arrived in your reception area, the young lady that helped me, she could have been more professional and more friendly. That's all I have to say about that. That's the only thing that I saw. Otherwise, everything was good.

None that I can think of. Dr. Williams is very professional, supportive, and encouraging. She is a very good listener and works hard to communicate best practices and best next steps based on research.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/14/2025
Everyone was great but when I got to the lab the phlebotomist was having a discussion with another staff member. I asked if I was in the right place for labs. The staff member told me I came in the wrong side and needed to go around. That was kind of ridiculous as I went around the corner and ended up in the same place - just from the other side when I could have just sat down from the original entrance. Then they just kept talking for a while before acknowledging me and asking my name. Once she started the phlebotomist was very friendly.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/14/2025

There is nothing I saw that could use any improvement. I have been searching and praying for years to find a doctor that listens and cares about me and my health as if I was there family members. Only thing I ask is that too keep doing what you are doing and don't change. Dr. Williams is very personable, has a very pleasant smile that makes you feel at ease. I have had some doctor's that were not attentive to my needs like Dr. Williams. Thank you so much! ??????

The reception experience could be better. They didn't seem kind and caring as the first point of contact for a healthcare facility.

Dr Williams was very thorough discussing my concern with me. She answered all of my questions. She was very nice and patient as always. All of her staff were professional and courteous.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/15/2025
I appreciate the follow-up survey calls that I received, but you guys don't have it set up for telehealth appointments. When I try to opt out of that or put like a zero to say like, was the facility clean? I don't know, because I wasn't there. I just went by the last time I visited or like the hand washing question. So if you could like somehow streamline that, that would be amazing. And that's all I have. Thank you.
