I wish Dr. Woodsen would have been familiar with my prior surgeries that may have impacted surgery he performed.
Aside from the fact that it took many months to actually get an appointment, everything was great.
Dr. Woodson listened to my concerns and took time to discuss options and answer questions. He is a great doctor. Grateful I was able to get in to see him.
Dr Woodson is so great & easy to talk to.
Thank you for the excellent care I received.
Very satisfied with doctor All questions answered
The Inspire attendant was professional and helpful. Dr. Woodson is pleasant and answered my questions patiently. He is a brillant physician.
Dr Woodson had a resident with him. It was a great experience. He asked questions and the residents response was right on.
Terrific experience with Everyone
Good staff and insightful physician in evaluating and advising as to my sleep/sinus issues.
My experience was very good except I waited longer than I expected, however, the doctor was very thoughtful and asked how I felt about what he proposed for my treatment.
Everybody I dealt with from my phone call, reception, dr assistant, and doctor was great. They are all friendly, professional and show care for the patient. Follow up is likewise excellent.
Great dr. Great office
Dr. Woodson was very friendly, helpful and informative. He listed to my answers to his questions, asked additional questions as needed to clarify or go deeper and answered my questions thoroughly and considered my level of knowledge and concern. He was able to clearly explain about my nose and nasal issues and how they lead to my possible sleep apnea. He discussed next steps very clearing and including explainations of why and how, as well as possible outcomes and treatment options based on my sleep test results and other tests. His staff welcomed me and I only waited a few minutes, they were very friendly and considerate, asked greaat questions and moved efficiently. On checkout I was treated very well, and they processed my information and results quickly.
Love Dr Woodson, sorry he's going to retire
Excellent communication and very thorough
Personable, Included me in conversations, Made me feel at ease. We even related on others issues, not related, to help me feel I was a person not just a patient. They have their own " family together to do well".This is rarely seen. I'm trusting them.
The whole team was professional and patient in answering my many questions.
Dr. Woodson is an excellent physician. He works with the patient to look at options in complicated caaes.
It was all good. Directions to the clinic were clear, parking great, nurse and doc were great. Explained things and options. My only low mark was I had to wait almost 2 months to get in. Otherwise all good.
