I received good and thorough care from Dr. Naughton. She talks fast and has a high energy personality, which can be off-putting. I’m also not interested in the online seminar she promotes since my symptoms aren’t applicable at this time. Otherwise, I believe I was in good hands.

Review for Dr. Naughton

Personable, very competent, inspires confidence, asks and answers questions, never rushes. He has taken excellent care of me. Has a nice sense of humor too.

Dr. Fisher is competent and personable. She listens and explains. I trust her with my care.

Review for Dr. Jacobs

Poor bedside manner. Walked in and said 'You need a hip replacement' No explanation of imaging results. Seemed bored and disconnected. Spent less than 7 minutes, No exam at all. Would have zero confidence having this doctor preform a surgery on my family member.
