Finally, a gynecologist that puts you at ease from the 1st time you meet! Never feel stupid asking questions, and I feel like I can ask her anything. She's so personable, as well as her staff.

Dr. Cannon is very caring and considerate, yet professional, during our visits. When she asked what had or hadn't changed since the last visit and I explained all the health updates that had occurred, she showed such sincerity and concern trying to help in any way possible.

Can I just tell you how much I love Dr. Cannon! She delivered my daughter 5 months ago and the entire pregnancy up to delivery was a pleasant experience with her as my doctor. She is a true joy to be around! Thank you Dr. Cannon for being one in a million!

Dr. Cannon delivered my daughter 7 years ago, and it was an unforgettable experience! I remember it just like it was yesterday. Words cannot express how wonderful of a doctor she is and a wonderful person. This was my first child and she was there with me every step of the way. She was very attentive, knowledgeable, and an overall good spirited woman. Her bedside manners are impeccable and I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to have such a wonderful person deliver my first child. I can go on for days about how wonderful Dr. Cannon is but I'll stop here. All I can say is, if you ever get the chance to have her as your doctor, you won't be disappointed.

I have been a patient of Dr. Cannon's for 8 years now. She is wonderful, has delivered my sweet children and genuinely cares about your well being; physical and mental. I live 45 minutes from her offices now and I still see her.

I have been going to Dr. Cannon for over 6 years, since I moved here from the DC area, and I would recommend her to anyone seeking a caring Dr. with a wonderful bedside manner. She is Awesome!

When I moved her from Philadelphia, I was very skeptical about finding another OBGYN. I had my previous OBGYN for over 25 years. After meeting Dr. Cannon I was EXTREMELY comfortable her bedside manner is excellent. She answers all my questions and concerns. I would not change her for the world
