Really disappointed in this practice. What started as mediocre care took a nose dive recently. The front staff is rude and snotty. A concern escalated to the office manager who made matters worse. This is a small practice and closed minded staff from the doctors down. Sloppy service all around.

63 years old with Chronic Lyme and other debilitating issues and I was treated like garbage! He grossly obese PA Ms. Proctor lied about me on several occasions and even purposely put an incorrect diagnoses on the chart! They then took away a much needed medication with consult with Dr. Banks. This office is not clean. Some of staff was nice, until I explained how poorly I was being treated. Then they ignored me and left me without a doctor and access to my necessary medications! Outrageous! Do not go to this practice! They do not care about the patient. I am a prime example of their lack of moral and ethical standards.

As many others have already stated Karen/Dr. Banks is an excellent concerned, caring, knowledgeable physician. I am extremely thankful, thoroughly satisfied and happy to have her as my PCP. She as well as her entire staff are extremely thoughtful, kind, professional and thorough. I have absolutely no qualms placing my health and life in her and her staff's hands.
