I love my doctor and my PA, but I have to wait a little while before they come in the office, almost 30, 40 minutes. Speed up the timer will be great. Thank you.

11/13/2025

Dr. Padgett is truly one of the best. I respect this man to the fullest. He is incredibly personable, kind, and compassionate the type of doctor who makes you feel seen, heard, and genuinely cared for every single visit. He takes his time, listens without judgment, and explains everything in a way that brings comfort and confidence. His team makes the experience even better. Kayla and Tiff are phenomenal knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure your needs are met. They treat you like family, not just another appointment. And Wendy at the front desk is amazing. She's warm, welcoming, and keeps everything running smoothly with a smile. Together, they are a powerhouse team. If you want a doctor's office where you feel respected, supported, and truly cared for, this is the place. I couldn't ask for better. Highly, highly recommended.

10/20/2025

Good great experience and everything was explained in a detailed way that I understood.

10/15/2025

So what I would like to say about this provider is that each time I've walked into the office, I've always felt valued. I've always felt like I was first priority in my doctor's visit. They listen to you. They pay attention to you. They do everything to make you comfortable in being in the office, so especially Walking in there just feels so spiritual and God-fearing up in there, some God-fearing people that work at the office. With that being said, I just enjoy being there because I don't have to worry about people being fake. I don't have to worry about people pretending. Everything just seems so genuine and real.

10/15/2025

Total visit time rather long for rather routine check up

04/14/2025

They're doing a good job to keep me healthy Thanks

04/10/2025

When the nurse left the room @0930, it was 0950 before the NP came in. What is the purpose of seeing an NP when she gets the Doctor to come in and double-check what she has done? I have never been anywhere that this is done. If the NP sees you, they see you and leave; you don't wait for the doctor to come see you then. Don't get me wrong, Dr Padgett is great, but some of us have other things to do besides sitting in a room for 45 minutes to see a nurse, then the NP, and finally the doctor.

04/08/2025

From the Front desk , every step everyone treats you with respect, and Dr. Padgett and Nurse Practitioner, they know what your health should be, I give them a 100 for the whole office

04/02/2025

Everybody is always nice and courtesy. I recommend family and friends to visit the office.
