I like the doctor, she is well informed in her field. BUT they rescheduled me THREE times, I didn't see the doctor for over a YEAR! I am sure it is becasue she does procedures at the hospital and can run into emergencies or complications she ends up rescheduling. BUT it should not be three times for any one patient and someone in the office is not paying attention and keeping in mind it's not a new appointment, it's a rescheduled one. One shouldn't have to wait another three months and then another three months and then another three months! That is beyond unacceptable. I am a very thoughtful and understanding person but being pushed out over a year is just way over the top and it made me feel like I had no choice as a patient with my appointments.

Not only do I see Dr. Blanton, but also my son, who has special needs. She is thorough and spends as much time as needed to help with his issues. I highly recommend her.

One of the kindest doctors with a high level of patience with my many questions. Never felt rushed or that I was taking up too much of her time. Met Doctor Blanton after 1st colonoscopy. She also did follow up year later . Very concise and explains in layman terms everything that was going on.

Thank you Dr. Blanton for being the sensitive, caring, and professional physician that you are. I suffered for years until I met this lady. Today I am in remission. I take the medicine that she prescribed and follow the strict diet that she suggested. So what, if I can't have salads---I'm in remission yippie!!!!
