Eva at the reception desk is always so sweet and helpful. The MA for my appointment was super helpful in tracking down a PA issue with one of my meds. Dr. Dessent and his shadow NP were super receptive, listened to me and answered every single question I had. Dr. Dessent always makes me feel like we are a team by listening and understanding my thoughts and opinions. I know if he stresses the importance of something that isn't necessarily something I would prefer that it really is what is best for me. I leave every annual checkup feeling good about what we discussed.

This was my welcome to Medicare visit. It was nice that Dr. Dessent took the time to explain the Medicare process for this and future visits.

Dr. Dessent is very personable. He listened, asked questions that were actually vital to the symptoms I had been experiencing, and gave me a plan, starting with labwork, to hopefully figure out a diagnosis. He had 2 students with him, both were very polite. All 3 providers were extremely professional. The medical assistant who seated me Initially was also friendly. Almost forgot to mention the 2 girls at the front desk were great, smiling even at 7:40 in the morning!

Dr Dessent is great- the metrics of the survey show my sincere ratings, I'm not shy about my opinions. He's a tremendous upgrade compared to my former Dr from Millenium. I feel like he's fully invested in my care.
