Patient Testimonial

"I am so happy we chose Dr. Toombs-Withers as our physician. Not only is she a great physician, but the Direct Primary Care model fits our lifestyle very well. Appointments at Essence of Health Wellness are in a relaxed and caring atmosphere. Dr. Toombs-Withers is a great listener and addresses all of my concerns. I've never felt rushed through an appointment, and each exam is thorough.

 

As a mom with young children, things come up and I love that I consult Dr. Toombs-Withers with my concerns at any time. I don't have to make an appointment or drag everyone in to the office. I can call or text her and she can give advice over the phone. Then if an office visit is needed scheduling appointments is very easy. She goes above and beyond to give great care to her patients!"
