I had a good conversation and follow up with Dr Garner. Sometimes I have to wait, but she's treating other patients too.

Dr. Karen Garner helped me through my list of questions and concerns about my health that I brought to our meeting, she reviewed information from my Apple Watch that was exported for her review, she answered all my questions in detail, had very solid and actionable suggestions for my health, explained things to me in a way I could understand, and made sure my future prescriptions where at the pharmacy and we discussed follow up work to monitor and improve my health. Never felt rushed, even though the practice was busy, and also the front desk help (all of them seriously), helped me out and the two PAs that assisted as well were terrific, thoughtful and kind, while being very proficient at their jobs in my patient capacity.
