Unbelievable service and he performed a very thorough examination and it was my first visit to him and I am just completely so satisfied. My prior doctor I never even got to see him. I was with him for a year and 4 months and I never saw him. I highly recommend this doctor and his nurses and all their services. Thank you so much doc.

Dr Combs is a wonderful man. I have known him for years but have been his patient since Dec. 2023. I now see Kelly for my follow up appointments. The staff are very helpful and pleasant. My daughter is also a patient of Dr Combs and she sees Kelly. We both enjoy coming here.

I had a great experience! It’s clean, the staff is always friendly, and I waited less than 5 minutes in the waiting room. When they took me back I only waited maybe 10 minutes before Maggie came to assess me. She is always so patient, genuine and answered all the questions I had. Thank you to all the staff there for all that you do!

I have been a patient of Dr. Combs for about 25 years. My last visit on May 23, 2024 was a routine follow up to review lab results. The medical assistant did a very thorough review of my health history and the Physician Assistant trainee did a good job reviewing my labs and listening to my heart and lungs. Dr. Combs then arrived and reviewed all my labs and health issues. He spent much time with me answering my questions and assessing my current health status. He put my mind at ease assuring me that I was in great health for my age (81) I hope I live long enough to continue visiting Dr. Combs and his professional team for years to come. Dr. Joseph Anselmo
