Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The best, most caring doctor I ever had. Love her!
She takes as long as necessary to assess and treat your medical problems. Patients are not rushed through. Very kind and professional! I recommend her 100%.

Dr. Artress is amazing! I am so grateful I found her. She is very caring and really listens to the issues I tell her I am having. She spends more time with me than any doctor ever has and I really appreciate that. If you call or email with questions, she is quick to respond. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a primary care doctor. You will not be disappointed! My Mom is now going to her too and loves her as well. My only regret is that I did not find her sooner.

I have loved having Dr. Artress as my doctor. I find her easy to get an appointment with and when she sees you she spends a lot of time to make sure she gives you exactly the right treatment. She recently treated me for flu and pneumonia and called me from her car that night just to make sure I had gotten her messages and to hear my voice to know I was doing alright. That is not easy to find in a doctor. Highly recommended!

Very thorough, listens well, covers a lot of details, though fast & efficient. Explains when asked. Seems to have a good understanding of Asthma issues, even though she isn't an Asthma "specialist".
