I have seen Dr Dowell for many years, she is knowledgeable, caring, compassionate and sensible, always smiling and upfront with the information. I can talk about her caring and the love she has shown toward me and her nurses all the years that she has been my Doctor.

She did the test they do at the appointment but didn't tell us everything looked good or give us the numbers. We had to ask if the measurements were on track. We asked one question and I don't think she gave us a straight forward answer

This was a very brief visit considering I waited almost an hour after the appointment time. The doctor was a bit awkward and didn't introduce herself. But she was nice and I appreciate that the steep-strips have been removed from my incision.

My doctor provided great treatment and was very friendly. She was gentle, caring, and listened. She also helped resolve an appointment issue for my wife who was coming in later. Will continue to see her and would recommend her to others.
