Patient Reviews
Jun 21, 2018
I was a patient of Dr. Powell's several years ago. He is a thorough, kind, understanding doc. He explains issues and solutions in layman's terms and he always follows up. My only complaint would be his impolite nurse with the northern accent. She always seems to be having a bad day. From interrupting to finishing my sentences (incorrectly)when I'm answering to speaking in a condescending tone when she thinks I'm haven't followed Powell's instructions, she's the reason I haven't returned.
