Student Review
"Perfect site to spend my last rotation at. I was responsible for patient care from start to finish including the assessment/plan and patient education. Dr. Williams was available and willing to answer questions however she encouraged me to think on my own. I started at this site a timid doctor-to-be and I left more confident in my clinical decision making."
