The pain in my back and side has subsided so I can resume my activities that I enjoy. Am I perfect, no, but I can get up with minimal or no pain, golf, and complete my daily tasks.

What could have been done to improve your experience?
When I am told that I am having an appointment with a physician I expect to spend more than 2 minutes with them. I tried to ask for something and she stated she would take care of it at a follow up appointment. I have worked in healthcare for 30 + years and am surprised at my experiences I have had at Mid Michigan Houghton Lake.

Dr. Harrington and Ashley are the best!!!! They are always on time, are pleasant and a joy to work with. She is flexible with her appointment scheduling; is always willing to answer any questions and shows concern at every appointment. When I've had to contact either of them through the online portal, they ALWAYS respond within 24 hours or LESS with an answer or at least letting me know they received the email and will provide an answer. Even waiting for the final answer never takes longer then 24-48 hours. As for my healthcare from Dr. Harrington and her assistant Ashley - they are absolutely WONDERFUL!!!!!
