Dr. Townes was excellent. She had read my chart! She was attentive, kind, listened well, and answered my questions thoroughly. I am very pleased at the thought that she will be my new primary care physician.

Dr. Townes is very relatable, caring & patient. She asks relevant questions to get a thorough understanding of the issues- I don’t feel rushed when I visit with her. Her concern seems genuine.
