  • Dr Andersen took a lot of time discussing my mental health concerns. She is the best. She never judges and is always respectful. I highly recommend her.
    Dr was very caring and very nice
    My doctor always makes me feel cared about. She listens to me and doesn't judge me when I have difficult or strange issues. I appreciate her a lot.
    I can only assume that I saw Doctor Anderson. She entered the room, did not introduce herself, her attire was certainly not medical professional. She went straight to the computer and only interacted with the computer. She did not seem the least bit interested in me or the problem for which I was there. She did however, get closer to The correct medication than any of the previous doctors. However the instructions on the bottle were to take 2 tablets daily she gave me 5. I'm no Doctor but I did graduate from the first grade. My pharmacy called on Thursday to see if there was an error. I called on Friday to see if there was an error. We never heard from the office at all. Hopefully there wasn't an error.
    Just good

    Biography

    Philosophy of Care
    I believe that the practice of medicine is collaboration between the patient and the physician, with the physician listening carefully to completely understand the needs and desires of the patient. I feel that the physician and patient should work together to determine a treatment plan that is effective and fits with the patient’s lifestyle.

    Hobbies
    When I am not working with patients, I love to read, paint, create scrapbooks and spend time with my children.
