Because she took time to spend with and answer all our question (my daughter was with me) The most impressive thing was when I said I needed referrals I had them in my hand before I left the office.. Melissa Fitzgerald was the best!!’

I asked for her to call me back concerning meds and someone else called and could not answer all questions and if I wanted to talk to her to make an appointment. I just felt that she could’ve called me back that I should not have to pay for another appointment or wait for the time of an appointment to ask a couple questions.

She was very personable and took the time to listen and explain everything to me very clearly. Needed a referring doctor and she got me one that visit. Only thing is that I still haven’t received my prescription she sent due to too much medication and pharmacy required a fax back from her and office hasn’t gotten back to them.
