I'm delighted with my new provider, Selena T.! She was fabulous and thorough. I was with Dr Hawes for several years, until he retired.

Annual Well Woman Exam

My appointment last year was unsatisfactory, so I requested a different provider this year. Salena was wonderful! She followed up on my questionnaire, spent time explaining things, gave me options, etc. She was very warm and approachable. This is the first time in almost 30 years of annual exams that someone was so gentle with the speculum - way to go!

This office is always so professional and takes their time with you free of judgement. They are very prompt and whenever I have a question, I always hear back so quickly. Today, most offices are overbooked and you are treated like a number. This office has never treated me this way and has always made me feel like a priority and really works with me if I am having any trouble. I can’t say enough good things about this office. It is hands down the best medical office in Asheville.
