Dr. Sames has diagnosed me with a rare disease two times when specialist could not. He has always answered my calls no matter the time. You cannot find very many doctors with his skills, knowledge or his care when he treats me.

Dr. Sames always ask questions about my health, symptoms, medication questions, if I have any concerns. He discusses everything, has records, knows testing results and orders lab test, scans, mammogram and colonoscopies as needed. He listens to his patients and addresses any concerns. He is such a knowledgeable caring person. His assistant April is also great. I can call office and speak to her or leave a message and she will return call and assist me . She will consult dr sames with any questions and return with his response/ advice. The receptionist are so nice, friendly and respectful. I recommend them to all my friends and family

The person who took my blood needs to practice more. She jabbed my arm instead of going at an angle. It hurt and left me with a huge bruise. She was not friendly either.

We live in a time when so much demand is put on Dr's by patients and the Health care networks they practice within it is a wonder that there are any Dr's left.I have personally filled out many of these surveys and have always given Dr Ed Sames the very highest recommendation. I do not wish to be surveyed again about him.If I am, will probably make a switch.Many thanks.

Dr. Sames has always been informative and helpful, always spending time with me and never making me feel rushed. April has always been good to me as well. The person who took my blood sample was good at drawing it, as I don't like needles. The receptionist was helpful, which is huge. Several years ago, that person was really awful and did not have any customer service skills. My blood pressure would always be high and she was the reason why. The ultimate goal, I would think, would be to have everyone in the office being very patient oriented. That happened this trip. Keep pushing customer service to the office staff and those drawing blood. Huge potential to be outstanding at this location.

I wish doctors give at least in a matter of time to go through her whole physical and any issues that the patient might have without feeling rushed. I like Dr. Sames a lot It's just that I always feel somewhat rushed through the whole visit, but this goes for a lot of doctors that I seen lately rheumatology, Dermatology, pain management, etc.
