    Dr. Townsend listened to my concerns and is working with me to try and lower my A1C and glucose levels. I enjoy my appointments with Dr.Townsend because I feel comfortable talking to her about all my health issues.

    This was my first appointment with Dr. Townsend. She is everything I could want in a PCP. She clearly cares a lot about my health and my wellbeing generally. The wellness exam was just the basic framework of the visit. She was helpful far outside the usual parameters of that kind of exam. She was thorough. She made certain that all of my concerns were addressed, and as an [omitted] man, I have a few. Thank you, Dr. Townsend!

    Dr Townsend was unrushed and asked thoughtful questions ranging from diet to exercise. She also added components to my blood test that led to me receiving the MMR vax today.
