I approach patients from the perspective of doctor as teacher- as originally defined 700 years ago. I see every patient encounter as an opportunity to teach them how to heal, to recover, and how to stay well in the future.

Dr. Book is wonderful. She is a kind professional with a great sense of humor, a compassionate demeanor (and smile), and makes all of our visits pleasant and helpful.
The Dr was very informative and helpful, as was the student. Very happy with my visit, thank you.
I felt that my questions were answered and I was given a good explanation of my husbands condition and the follow-up that should be done
Thank you for your support, guidance and focus to help me manage my health.
I was very impressed by the time Dr. Book spent with me to explain my test results, give me a revised diagnosis that made sense, and adjust my medication.
I gave "good" instead of very good. Comes from being in management for decades. Giving very good doesn't leave any room for improvement or being complacent. So here I would give all very goods to DR Book and staff. Especially DR Book she's better than very good. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to be apart of this survey.
Everyone was very nice.
Dr.Boot was outstanding,very complete and completely professional in listening and giving my problem complete attention.
I was thinking my visit was to address my problem because of shingles. It was not it was in regard to my stroke in March. I am working with St Luke's in this regard so that was discussed and I left. She was very kind and interested in my problems.
Dr. Book was very thorough and I always appreciated her punctuality!
She was so wonderful with my husband, who has dementia that she is worth however long you need to, to get an appointment.
