First hello well I can say great things about my doctor! I have been coming to my doctor every since I was 25 and she does wonders for me! She might does spend a little extra time with other patients and your time be delay a little longer! And her receptionist are okay to me because I don’t let none of them affect me! But overall my doctor is definitely good! I recommend alot of people to her! She definitely listening to me! And she definitely get to my problems! Here lately some of here staff have been on there job so I had to go to Peebles for help but I got taken care of! But Dr Joseph always like to give people a try so I give her a award for that! She definitely deserves one for that? She is a beautiful black doctor with her own practice that will give someone a hand if they needed it but don’t messed up, you out of there! So all you people that say something bad about her y’all are wrong! 30 something years with her she doing something right? Thank you Dr Joseph

the nursing staff is xcellent; however, it was unfortunate they lose a front desk person...all I know is Diana. She was a significant part of front office.....In fact, I'd wait until the days she worked bfore calling......Regardless how tired, physical feelings or emotional; she was always caring with an xcellent report w/ patients....Cannot say the same about Pat....
