Dr. Earl Gene Draves has been my PCP for a number of years. He is kind, considerate, courteous and asks appropriate questions regarding any health issues I may be experiencing. He also listens intently when I speak and does not rush me through my visit. He is thorough in his examination and fact-finding, and extremely knowledgeable in his diagnosis and treatment plans. I especially appreciate that I feel comfortable enough with him to participate in and contribute to my own diagnoses and treatment options without being made to feel unqualified or uneducated in the medical profession. Dr. Draves is an awesome person and an excellent physician who cares about his patients' well-being. He is willing to take the time to listen, and utilize the resources needed to discover any potential health issue, and provide an appropriate treatment plan, when needed. I am very grateful that he is my primary care physician.
