08/24/2023

PA Crews was concerned that I was out of work and have no insurance coverage to help pay for my prescriptions and searched the internet to find the lowest cost so I could afford to pay out of pocket.

08/22/2023

The staff actually listen to you and arenā€™t in a rush to get to the next patient. I never have to wait long either.

07/27/2023

Crews is an absolute jewel. Always courteous and listens. He makes suggestions and asks for my input.

07/26/2023

Mr. Edens has been my primary care giver for several years. He is the most competent, available and concerned provider I have ever had. I would follow Mr. Eden wherever he works locally in the future (insurance permitting). In addition to the quality care, he is very responsive to questions I pose via mychart and is always willing to adjust his schedule if we feel there is a need for a visit sooner than his current schedule would allow. Mychart has become very useful too for me - please continue this trend. The staff at the raleigh office is competentm friendly and accommodating. The facility is nice and clean. I am glad that wakemed resolved its issues with partners that allow for lab work to be done onsite versus separate trip to Labcorp.

07/24/2023

Not at all ..!! Excellent team..!!

07/24/2023
