Dr. Sanford is very caring and knowledgeable. She has helped me in monitoring my ageing Medtronic Interstim battery. She is now going to surgically replace the battery to get me back to normal. I highly recommend Dr. Sanford.

Dr Sanford was very friendly which helped me feel at ease. This was my first visit to a urologist and had no idea what to expect. She was very professional and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain everything going on and answered all my questions. I am so glad I was referred to her!!

Dr. Sanford is the BEST! I was embarrassed at first to see a urologist, but she put me at ease, made me feel normal, assured me that a lot of women deal with my issue. She listens to you, provides very thorough treatment options, and lets you make the final decision for your care. Lets you take baby steps if you’re not sure (try this first, if that doesn’t work, move on to the next step, and so on). She wants to be sure that YOU are happy and satisfied with the outcome.

Dr. Sanford has been my urologist for the past 5 years. Her knowledge, compassion and listening skills give me the confidence that I have the best doctor for my care. Her appointments are easy to make and have a reasonable wait time if not an emergency. You are in an exam room within 10 minutes and within another 5-10 minutes, Dr. Sanford is in the room with a big smile and a cordial greeting. She listens, discusses, recommends treatments and then makes sure you know what to do before the next appointment. Her staff is professional and an asset to her practice. Her office is easily found d and there is adequate parking.
