Patient Reviews

Apr 20, 2024

Dr. Bland is incredibly patient, knowledgable and caring. He always takes time to understand his patients needs and source solutions to treating the 'whole' person versus a symptom. Dr. Bland is by far the best doctor I have ever had and I feel fortunate to have found him via an urgent care visit. I have been seeing him for over 5 years and will continue to have him as my PCP and for my family. He also hires PA's who are likeminded and runs his practice with the upmost care and attention. It is very hard to find good care especially as you age and your needs evolve. Dr. Bland treats his patients like a priority and I feel very fortunate to have found such great healthcare locally.
