Dr Dowell was very helpful on all levels, from attentively listening, answering questions and explaining options that could help me. Also made me feel comfortable about discussing what to me felt like a sensitive and personal condition.

Dr. Dowell is an exceptional physician who not only has excellent bed side manner, but was patient, kind and clinically knowledgeable. I trust her to know the latest medical advances.

I wish the provider had spent more time with me discussing the issue and next steps to determine what was going on. They were quick to recommend hormonal regulation. I wish the provider informed me more about what labs they were ordering and discussed the labs I had done prior to the visit. I was billed for two visits during my time in office, but didn't feel like additional time was provided to address the concerns at hand.

This doctor was very short, cold, and not friendly at all. For my first ever experience with a GYN doctor I would not come back.
