    You know, Dr. Underwood is always patient and always listening if I have questions and does the best of his ability to answer any and all the questions. But I just appreciate his patience with me and understanding and we have a pretty good discussion about my health whenever I get a visit with Dr. Underwood.

    He needs to improve about my medication and I have to keep in a cup all the time. That's not right. I just like him about all that stuff. And he's not fair with me at all. Thank you.

    Dr. Underwood listens to me and ask questions. Seems to be concerned about my health. He assures me that he will get me in for a visit even if I didn't have an appointment that day. Always gets my prescriptions called in. The personnel in his office is very helpful and friendly.

      Over the period of multiple visits, he has really been in depth with my medical care because it is a complex medical and I am glad that I have chose him as my physician because he definitely listens and he is eager to find the best solution for my care.

      I'm satisfied with Dr. Underwood. He's been my doctor for quite some time and he's always very thorough and he's, I fully trust him. He's a good doctor. But I wanted to say about his nurse that was there yesterday. She was absolutely amazing. I had told my friend that I wanted to call and leave a compliment for her. She is such a kind lady. She's very thorough. She walked me to my car because I was unsteady. She's just a very great nurse and I feel like sometimes they don't get the recognition they deserve, but she was a very, very good nurse.

      Yes, my wife and I both like Dr. Underwood very much. We're both his patients. He speaks very loudly, which is good for us because we're both hard of hearing. And he's very knowledgeable. We recommend him to, and I've already myself in the past recommended him to other people who I think are some of his patients now. But yes, we like Dr. Underwood. Thank you.

      Dr. Underwood was a very professional, kind, very helpful provider for my son. The only thing I wish the time was just a little bit better. Wait times is sometimes a little excessive and I'm sometimes waiting hours to two hours just to be seen. Other than that, he is very professional, very helpful, and one of the best providers I've ever been to.

      Your staff at your facility was 110%. The lady that took me back, the lady that took the blood out of my arm, the doctor was, I can't scale from one to 10, I can only scale from one to 100. It was definitely 100 on all of that. You got really a great team.

      Your receptionists there are very, very nice, and so are your nurses. But I saw this thing in the waiting room about saying something about your nurse. I think it starts at the nurse's state or at the reception desk. When you go in an office, they're the ones that make your office better and lighten up the air so it's easier to be there when you're anxious or anything. So I think they should get credit too for how good an office runs. And you do have very nice people at the front desk.

      Yes, my experience over there with Dr. Underwood and his staff was excellent. His staff greeted me as soon as I walked in, and then his nurse took me back. I wasn't waiting very long, and then once I got back there, his nurse was very kind and very punctual with everything that she did. She was caring, and then when Dr. Underwood came in, he's like he always is. He's just kind and he's patient and he listens to what I have to say and explains things very thoroughly. Therefore, I was extremely happy and I will continue coming. Thank you.

      Dr. Underwood was really a great, great initial call consultation. The only issue I have is MyChart. I came from a large practice in Florida that also use MyChart, but my records don't seem to transfer over so easily. That certainly is not Dr. Underwood's fault by any means. He's very, very informative. He listened to me whenever I said something. You know, if I had a question, he knew immediately what to say. I really appreciate him. He was a very thorough doctor and very thorough. And I believe me, I've been to a lot of them. Thank you.

They ask you if you want to know anything. I really rate them about 120%. 110% ain't right, but about 120% they was most helpful as they could be. And that's all I got to say. That's just great about them. They're good people. And thank you.

      Overall, I feel that he has good intentions at heart, but I do not feel that I was listened to and that my input directly or even indirectly affected the outcome of my visit in regards to what I had stated was helping me have a better quality of life. He is okay. He is. But he is enforcing, it seems, an ideology on me that I am not in congruence with. And we will see if he will be my doctor in the future. I am uncertain, as I do have many health issues and want to ensure that I have the best quality of care available.

Urine test for kidneys. I decided to get a tetanus shot cause I don't know when I had one last They did an EKG. It was good. I had to check my blood pressure at home for a while.
