My husband and I have been patients for 20 years. We have always received the best care, thorough, smart, compassionate. Can’t recommend her more highly.

I've been a patient of Dr. McPhillips for over 20 years, and feel that she has been an excellent steward of my health. She's highly knowledgeable, caring, an excellent diagnostician, and also willing and able to deliver recommendations that are hard for some patients to accept (e.g., why antibiotics are not always an appropriate option). A consummate professional and one of the best PCPs in the area.

I've been a patient of Dr McPhillips for many years. I came to her on a referral and have sent many friends to her as well. Asks relevant questions, listens very well, examines thoroughly and requests all needed tests to finalize opinion and diagnosis. Always up to date on current medical decisions regarding menopause, drug reports and aging healthfully. Love the PatientSite web access format for my reports and records.

I have been a pt of hers for four years and have recently had some problems. She is right on target with the tests that need to be ordered. I appreciate the care and time she has given me.
