Dr. Feltman has been my PCP for 10+ years and she was highly recommended from a number of her older patients. She is caring, compassionate and a great guide to a healthier lifestyle. Dr. Feltman is a medical detective looking beyond signs/symptoms for answers in cooperation with other specialist. Her nurse and office staff are kind, calming and always professional while keeping the flow of patients moving. No one likes going to the doctor....but I actually look forward to my yearly physical evaluations and her assessment of how I'm maintaining now as I'm going into my 70"s this year. K.S.

I've been seeing Joan for many years. She was highly recommended to me and I would definitely choose her if I had to do it to do over again. She is very straight forward, yet warm and caring as well. I feel we have a partnership in my healthcare decisions. She listens to what I have to say and spends as much time with me as I need. She always calls back after office hours. One of the attributes I am most pleased with is that she will readily tell you when a situation calls for specialist and make a referral. All of the referring doctors have been wonderful. I trust her completely and have never had a negative experience.

Dr. Feltman saved my life a few years ago and she has continued to be an angel. She calls immediately with the results of exams, she listens, she has a wry sense of humor, and she is not at all intimidating. I have recommended her to numerous friends who have all had great experiences with her. Her staff is extremely friendly and actually remember you when you come in (asking about your kids, etc.) Truly amazing doctor. I would not change.
