Office was efficient. I was seen at my scheduled time and waited very little between the assistant and Dr.

01/20/2025

Very thorough. Listened to my concerns and she related what needs to be done to prepare for the future.

01/20/2025

Having a rare disease means I've seen a lot of Doctors and Dr. Taylor is the first Neurologist who seems to genuinely understand my disease and help me achieve my treatment goals

11/04/2024

Very impressed with the Doctor and the other providers.

10/29/2024

I feel like she really listens to my concerns and does her best to help me. She helps me to understand what is happening with symptoms. She is also great at talking over new meds with me -how they might help, as well as possible side effects and how to minimize them if possible.

10/25/2024

Excellent-caring and knowledgeable and provided excellent advice

10/22/2024

With two referrals to the office didnt know what case they were treating. Ask all kinds of questions of me when they had all information from the referring doctors. With an head injury, I have some problems remembering certain things. Therefore I keep a log of things and ask for everything in writing.

09/23/2024

I’m a medically complex patient with frequent hospitalizations. Dr Taylor is, of all my former and current physicians, my overwhelmingly the best physician

It remained unclear to me if I am supposed to have any follow up visits with her, which was frustrating when I had a nearly 6 month wait to see her. So I guess I hope her plan works!
