I was given the BEST care. I brought up my concern in a message via mychart and was seen that same week. Dr. Philips was excellent at making sure we got to the bottom of it with labs, tests and consults with others. Shirley at the desk was phenomenal with her scheduling to make sure I got in right away at the next phase.

Lori Phillips is truly one of the best providers I've had in my life. One of the top 3. She listens so well and cares so much and discusses with you what she recommends for you based on what she hears from you and the discussions you have with her each visit or interaction. She always makes me feel so comfortable and a lot of times it's something that in general is uncomfortable to talk about or hear about. She's just such a good listener. It's always been one of my favorite qualities about her. She's always in a good mood. She's just a lovely human and I appreciate her so much!

Lori always goes above and beyond to listen, address my issues, research and execute. She reviews my file before she comes in, takes her time going through my issues and Suggests what might be the issue or what tests we can do to find out. She truly cares about my health and I am so grateful for her!!!
