      I absolutely loved meeting Dr. Bowman. I feel that he met my needs and then some. He is very personable, puts you at ease, and is very easy to talk with. He explained everything in an easy to understand manner. The only thing I would ask is to have an after visit summary and visit notes available in My Chart. It's hard to remember everything that is said during a visit, and it's really nice to have these to look back on. Thank you.
