Annual Well Woman Exam

Dr. Wright is fabulous! I have been seeing him for 15 years now. From childbirth through menopause he has been the best OBGYN I could have asked for. From the moment I saw him during pregnancy rotation I knew I didn’t want to see anyone else. He takes time, listens and cares.
