What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I love Dr. Garlinghouse. When I first met him I didn’t think he liked me. I’m pretty nice but sometimes I get on peoples nerves. And I’m not even trying to, but Dr. Garlinghouse is very nice & friendly & professional. He answers all my questions and offers support. I just think he’s great. I told on of my buddies about him and he called for an appointment and sees him now I think as his primary. His office staff is always nice. Kelly was my nurse the last couple times I’ve been there and she’s super nice too.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
This was my first time visit to Dr. G as a new patient. I do interact with him 2 other times with my husband’s apptmts. He was recommended to us by our retiring doctor, Dr. Tetzlaff. Dr. G was very pleasant, professional, answered all my questions asked, as well as I responded to his questions. He made me feel very comfortable, and I believe he was the correct choice for my PCP! He is the kind of doctor whom I have respect for and will have my best health interests in mind.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr Garlinghouse is a smart, careful, caring doctor. He listens very well. Dr Garlinghouse has an open detective’s mind. This is refreshing. Most doctors, in my experience, are closed-minded, incurious, and want to stuff you into a box ribboned a bowed with some prescription (probably due to pressures and demands).
