Dr. Atkinson Reviews
Based on: 1 review -Add review
I got an appointment when I needed one.
They kept things moving and on time during my visit.
I received a correct diagnosis and up-to-date treatment.
I was given specific advice on lifestyle changes I can make to improve my health.
The provider really listened, gave me the time I needed, and put me at ease.
We discussed treatment options and choices I have.
The provider addressed traditional and alternative medicine treatment options in an open-minded way.

unable to own mistakes, Dr. Atkinson has been my PCP for more than a decade, and during that time has made repeated misd...iagnosis, some quite serious. An incident about my blood pressure was perhaps the worst, as one of a number of occasions on which she showed stubborn inability to be self-critical. I would never follow her advice without checking her grasp of the information she offered. She once offered my 15 yr-old daughter a benzodiazepine to address her anxiety.
she seems to believe everything drug salesmen tell her.. I remained her patient longer than I should have because of the quick service and immediate response from her office. more details
