Patterson Neil A MD PA

My entire family including grandparents and I have been patients of Dr. Patterson’s office for over 10 years. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about their care. Dr. Patterson himself is such a kind person and takes time to truly listen to his patients, my grandparents have never been in better hands. Michelle is one of the midlevels there who also takes great time with her patients, provides thorough care and always has a smile on! They also have a good knowledge about the specialists in the area and have always referred me to other knowledgeable and respectful offices when needed. His core nursing staff is also extremely compassionate. They have XR at the office which is really helpful, and the phlebotomist is amazing, she never misses :-D even my dad’s hard to find veins!!! I have found the front desk staff to be very on time and more organized than most private practice establishments. We have never had a long wait that I can remember. Most of the time I show up at my appointment time and they take us right in. Now that we moved away to another state I really miss having them! I recommend the office to any of my friends who are looking for a primary care office, our family has been exceptionally well taken care of :-)

I have been going to see Michelle Cooley (ARNP) and have used her as my GP for the past 2+ years now. She seems to know what she’s doing (hell if I know, I’m not a doctor OR a nurse) and is both kind and professional. She takes the time to listen and never leaves me waiting long once I’m in the exam room.
All of the nurses have always been friendly and have never acted unprofessionally. I have had bloodwork done in-​house as well as the series of 3 HPV vaccinations that are recommended for women under 26.
Not sure about the other ARNP’s/Doctors, but Michelle seems to have no interest in getting more money out of me; I recently told her that I’d done a «Know Your Numbers» screening for work at Quest and she told me to bring in the results so they wouldn’t have to pull blood at my next physical and could just add it to my chart.
The schedulers and receptionists are curt most of the time, but I don’t pay them to be all sunshine and smiles. They get the job done and I have always gotten anything requested in a timely manner.
Seriously, don’t know about the others– but love Michelle!

I would recommend this Doctor’s office to anyone looking for a new doctor, anyone new to the area, or anyone who is looking for a great place to go.
I have been going here for over two years, I selected the office based on proximity to my work. When I first became a patient, they asked me a question which I found odd, «would you mind being seen by a nurse practitioner?»
I said yes, and it was the best decision I could have made. Michelle is the name of the practitioner I see, and she is wonderful. The only bad thing was that she’s left twice to have babies, but she says she done for a little while.
I go for regular appointments every year, and they do my ‘well woman’ exam, which is really great to have a woman do it, makes me very comfortable even though someone is working ‘down there.’ They are always quick to squeeze me in when I call and am sick (have never had to wait more than 24 hours for an appointment) and great with follow up and medication refills. I’ve seen four different doctors with this practice, in that they will get me in to see whoever is available when I call for an emergency appointment, and they were all great.
Also, they have recently opened up what I will call a ‘minute clinic’ where if, perhaps you are prone to ear infections, and you feel you are getting another, you can go in without an appointment between 8 and 10, and they will get you in on a first come, first serve basis. I think its a great service for colds, flus, mild illnesses, etc.
Become a patient, you won’t regret it!

I urge you all to reconsider before seeking any health related information from this business. The doctor was fine, but the staff are complete nitwits. I went there because my insurance and location. I went there to get several immunization shots, and every time i went there, i had to double check what the nurse was shooting into me because the first time she almost gave me a shot that i did not need! It was completely ridiculous. On top of this, the doctor said i needed blood work done, but the nurses almost sent me out of the office without getting it done. I had to come back and remind them about everything. I ended up having to go there 13 times to get five shots and was hit for an office visit every time when they messed up. My insurance only covers 5 visits, and so i am paying out of pocket for the rest! I was supposed to have a sequence of tests done, but was not even told to come back within a 2 week window, and so i had to restart the sequence and pay those extra visits. Just be wary, and do not rely on them to do their job, because they won’t. I had to get these shots done because i was going to graduate program to be a doctor, and i can assure you, i will never have a staff that is this incompetent.
