Testimonials

After battling strep throat for over a week, others turned me away assuming I couldn’t have it without tonsils. Dr. Blankenship noticed the issue and had me feeling better within 24 hours. As a full-time working mother, I’m grateful for his attention to detail and for listening to my concerns.
