Blood Draw

First time meeting Dr. Wright due to Dr. Hawes retiring. Comfortable, professional appointment. Dr Wright was attentive to my history and reason for visit. Very pleased with visit.

Annual Well Woman Exam

This was the first time I’ve ever seen Dr. Wright, and I absolutely loved him - he made me feel at ease, he was honest and helpful, and he was okay with it when I basically changed my mind about the entire purpose of the appointment!

Review for John R. Wright Jr., MD

Gynecological Ultrasound / Sonogram

Dr. Wright is an awesome dr. I absolutely hate coming into Asheville (I changed my primary care dr a couple of years ago for that reason, but have stayed with Dr. Wright.) Recently, I actually was quite annoyed with Asheville Women's, because it took them a week and a half to get me an appointment for an ultrasound (I was very worried about pain in my ovary). No one would call me back - it took me calling several times, and the last time telling them that I was quite angry. Camry (a nurse? front desk?) took things in her own hands and got me an appointment right away, so she needs recognition. Honestly, I was ready to fire the practice (as much as I hated to, because as I said, I love Dr. Wright), but she was so apologetic, sincere, and dealt with my needs. The very second Dr. Wright stepped into the examining room, he apologized profusely for what had happened. He's such a sincere doctor, for which I'm grateful.

Annual Well Woman Exam

I met Dr Wright for the first time, I felt nothing but comfortable. He answered all of my questions (explained answers) even answered questions I didn’t ask but I wanted to know the answer to. He wasn’t pushy to vaccinate me like other doctors. I have seen previously and by far this is my best experience in an uncomfortable situation!
