Very accommodating, like needing blood work but willing to wait till a special lab kit arrives to draw lab work for him and 3 other specialist. So my husband will need only one lab poke.

Attentive

I came in with a really bad rash, and Dr. Scott explained the many different types and causes and determined that my rash was VIRAL rather than contact. He gave me a number of strategies for coping with and treating this rash. Our entire family has Dr. Scott as their primary care physician— truly the BEST!! Also, his nurse Doni is terrific.

He’s the best! I never feel rushed. He takes all the time to explain any of my issues. My only complaint is not being able to see him whenever I need to see him. Making appointments in advance has only worked for me.
