Patient Reviews

Apr 19, 2022

Dr. Dodson has been my PCP for several years now. Each time I’ve seen him he has given me sufficient time and attention and explained things to me like an adult. I come from a family of super smart diagnosticians and Dr. Dodson made me feel like he knows his stuff and I was in great hands.
