Patients also share

While the vast majority of reviews are overwhelmingly positive, a few minor areas for improvement were noted. One patient mentioned that Shannon speaks softly, making it difficult to hear her at times and requiring the patient to ask for repetition. Another reviewer expressed a preference for seeing their primary care physician instead of Shannon, though they still found her to be nice and a good listener. A comment about the need for more experienced phlebotomists was made, though this reflects on the facility rather than on Shannon's care directly.
