What else would you like to say about your experience?
Dr. Howell was dismissive of my symptoms. He did not listen to what I was saying or asking for. He did not give one suggestion of ways to help me. He didn’t order any more testing. He told me I needed to see specialists but didn’t help to in getting appointments. And no follow up.

What else would you like to say about your experience?
Dr. Steven Hunt is a genuine nice guy, but he's a little bit vague when he talks to me about what's going on and what needs to be done and when it needs to be done. Not what's being done or what is necessarily needing to be done, but when it should be happening.

What else would you like to say about your experience?
I love that Dr. Howell offers a tele visit , and it was just as well done as in person, but did not waste gas, and being handicapped I did not have to strain myself and end up hurting 3 days after from getting out , driving and getting in. This was so much easier, questions got answered, and everything was handled amazing.

What else would you like to say about your experience?
Dr S. Howell is good with my g-son. He directs his attention towards him and explains things directly to him. Of course I’m included. But…
By doing this, it makes my g-son feel comfortable and more grown up. It makes him open up and talk freely to him. At age 11, that’s a real good thing!
Thanks Doc Steven Howell
Keep up the good work!

What else would you like to say about your experience?
No explanation on how to use the prescribed medication and that it is a medication I would need to taper off of. Doctor did not call himself to explain test results and how to move forward.

What else would you like to say about your experience?
I really have enjoyed coming to this facility up until my last appointment with Dr. Howell. I just felt stigmatized and he promised to, he told me he'd sent him a referral and consulted with my primary doctor and I've yet to hear back or see any referrals in MyChart. I just, I left the appointment in tears and that is not feeling that's ever happened before because Dr. Howell stigmatized me when I had been working with Dr. Deere about this particular issue for about almost a year now. Thanks.

What else would you like to say about your experience?
Dr Howell listened and asked questions, going the extra mile to get us in to for an ultrasound. Everyone was so caring and helpful when they could have been frustrated by an unplanned appointment. I’m so grateful to know I have support in caring for my aging father.
