I've been going to Dr P for a couple of years. He doesn't try to "over doctor" yet he treats what is necessary.

Love his staff, the girls have become friends I look froward to seeing. They remember specifics and ask how family is. The doctor is a great man and the compassion he gives! Will never switch doctors!

He truly is the best doctor I've seen in saginaw, he listens and doesn't rush you along. I don't feel like just another number. The ladies up front are also very helpful rather you call or ask questions on my chart. Wouldn't see anyone else ever again.

Long wait-almost an hour on more than one occasion. He does take time with each patient and so the next has to wait. I am ok with that because of the extra time I know I'll receive, however scheduling could be better! He uses a computer to take notes as we talk, which can be both good and bad. He has the info on file right away, but he is typing and sometimes I have to repeat symptoms.
