Dr. Dunbar Is always very thorough and listens to all of my concerns. I never feel like the appointment is rushed. She is kind, compassionate and caring. I wish there were more physicians like her!!
Dr. Dunbar and the entire staff are very friendly, caring and compassionate. I also see the NPs (Emily, Hollie and Kelsey) throughout the year for any immediate concerns and they are wonderful! Very knowledgeable and caring. I highly recommend this practice to anyone who needs a provider. Terri the office manager is fabulous and friendly. Great job team!!!
Dr Dunbar is clear and concise but also easy to understand. She listens as I ramble but also addresses what needs to be addressed. She IS respectful and I have NOT always had that. She offers other solutions when possible but not in a condescending way. I absolutely appreciate being treated like an equal and will continue with her as long as she is practicing medicine!!
Dr. Dunbar is a very caring and understanding doctor. She often makes suggestions to improve my health and well-being.
Dr. Dunbar is very professional and knowledgeable while remaining extremely personable. One of the 2 very best PCPs in my experience.
