Annual Well Woman Exam

Start to finish, the experience was lovely. The woman at the front desk was warm and so so helpful, to me and other patients I saw her interact with. The nurse was lovely. And Dr. Wright was great. It’s hard to feel 100% comfortable at a place like this (obviously, it’s the gyno) but his ease, helpfulness, and almost nonchalant attitude about things I was uneasy about asking in the first place was so nice. He discussed things with me in a way that made me feel part of the conversation rather than another human he only sees once a year. I can’t believe I’m reviewing my gynecologist but you guys are great. So cheers I guess!

I was highly satisfied with my experience because my doctor took the time to listen carefully and didn’t rush through the appointment. They answered all of my questions with patience, and made me feel like a partner in my care. The office staff was also friendly and efficient, and I appreciated how smoothly everything ran, from scheduling to follow-up. Overall, I left feeling heard, respected, and confident in the care I received.
