Had an appointment with Urology NP Jill Rayes. As a fitness enthusiast, she gave me options without meds, since I try to be med free. She is genuinely caring and definitely not one to rush the visit. Just wish I would have found her sooner. Highly recommend her!

''Wound Care" Absolutely the best care I could've ever received Dr Pummer never wavered always gave uttermost attention to my care embracing me my family assuring us things would be fine..with time. I had extensive complications from a Incarcerated hernia which got infected which resulted in a second surgery and 5 months to recover. He and his nurses took excellent care of me . We are grateful

Fast, respectful, and friendly responses by all staff. Nurses and doctors very good and friendly. Transfer of care to Cardiology caused a change to the plan (which I liked) and some wasted effort before all knew the new plan. All adjusted easily. I am doing much better now.
