Patient Reviews for Mara Additon, MD
-
She was attentive and mapped out a plan of action and potential treatments, really putting my mind at ease.
-
I have always felt comfortable with the interactions I have had with staff. And they have been good about noting my questions even if they needed to be answered later because that was something another office could assist me with better. But I know they have helped getting me connected with appropriate referrals to get questions dealt with in order of what needed being addressed 1st
-
Provider was compassionate and caring to my diagnosis and answered the questions we had and let us know we can call and ask questions that we might have prior to our surgery. Very caring
-
I felt I was informed of potential treatment in such detail that I didn't really feel the need to ask many questions
-
Dr. Additon was very nice and receptive to my current condition. She was an active listener and really made me feel comfortable about the decision we came to.
-
Although I had done my research, Dr Additon was very knowledgeable and was able to explain to me what exactly was going on in my body with the parathyroid hormone and explain my options. I was very thankful she didn't just want to jump right into a surgical intervention
-
I'm satisfied with the answers I was given to my questions.
-
I was very impressed with Dr. Additon.
-
The provider didn't listen to what I was saying. I will not be seeing her again.
-
Very professional, explanation of options was very clear with no pressure to make an immediate choice or feel the need to make an immediate choice for any further treatment at the present time. Many options given!
