    How was your appointment with Dr. Purcell?

    Mar 21, 2023
    I’ve been seeing Dr. Purcell for over a year now and he is a wonderful human being and Physician! He found answers that others couldn’t find because Dr. Purcell is thorough, knowledgeable and caring and takes extra time to seek answers. His amazing staff is great and welcoming! His NP Emily Jing is a great clinician, explains in detail so I can understand, and shows she cares. A top notch Physician with an excellent practice where they all work together for the good of their patients! I highly recommend Dr. Purcell and his extraordinary team!
