I have been seeing Dr. Pitchford for approximately 8-years and he has always provided me exceptional care. He is very thorough with researching anything that I have a concern about. He is always patient and responsive to me, and makes me feel confident that I am receiving quality health care. (His office staff is very friendly and accommodating.)

People who think they must travel to find good medical care have not seen Dr. Pitchford. He is extremely competent and has a conservative approach to care. He refers out whenever appropriate, he does not over-prescribe medications and does not push for unnecessary testing. His staff are pleasant and professional. As a member of the health care profession also, I have nothing but respect and confidence in Dr. Pitchford's practice.
