Dr. Patton and his staff have been very good to my husband over the years. He has a very rare disease and there is not a lot of treatment for it. Dr. Patton has always been willing to take as much time as necessary to listen to our concerns and has called my husband at home to check on him after starting new meds. His staff is always professional and courteous and there is never any wait time. I highly recommend him!

In addition, he has a great sense of humor and a warm and caring attitude. The nurses and office staff are knowledgeable, well organized and professional in both appearance and attitude.
