Dr. Potter is an excellent physician. He is knowledgeable, thoughtful, and caring. He presents options and helps me come to a decision about treatment. The supporting staff and the office environment is very positive. I highly recommend Dr. Potter.

Dr. Potter is an excellent doctor! He consistently demonstrates exceptional medical knowledge. His treatment is done with calm and deliberate precision. He has an excellent rapport and friendly bedside manner. Although I have a life-long fear of needles, I am able to sit quietly and allow him to administer medication with the trust that it will be okay and not hurt. I highly recommend Dr. Potter. I went two years to other doctors and emergency rooms with a painful condition in my hands. Dr. Potter(whose appointment coincidentally coincided with a painful occurence) saw it and immediately said it was gout.Testing proved him to be correct. Since that time, I have medication and relief ever since. Yes, my endorsement of Dr. Potter is without reservation.

Dr. Kumar is wonderful. However, her time restraints, imposed from above, make an appointment with her a challenge. She tries, but frequently she doesn't have enough time to deal with all of my questions. Not good.
