It was our first time seeing Dr. Mullen. We LOVED Dr. Mullen and my husband and I are very glad we were assigned to her. We hope she continues to practice with Mid-Carolina Internal Medicine for a very, very long time.
Excellent new patient experience. I was concerned about changing providers since I had been with my previous PCP for a lang time. She asked all the right questions, we covered everything, it wasn’t rushed and I came away confident that I will get the care and advice I need going forward. It was actually an enjoyable experience.
Dr. Vijay Koli is very personable , he cares about me as a patient, and makes sure I get the very best care. He’s very thoughtful and makes sure I understand everything he discusses with me. He never rushes me if I have questions!
My appointment was at 11:30 I got called at 12:30 - not the worst part - Dr Brown just comes in sits at his computer and that's it. I don't ask anything because when I do he acts disturbed and talks so fast and low I can't understand him. I am going to find another doctor because I don't feel that I am getting the care I deserve.
I was blown away by the professional confidence and targeted questions that dialed in on my key symptoms and moved me to a care plan and follow up perimeters. This was my first experience with a nurse practitioner and a female health provider. I was self conscious of discussing male related issues, as I image girls must feel with a male doctor, but the manner at which she walked through the explanation calmed my nervousness, and put me at ease. Great Job!
Dr Vijay Koli is the best doctor I have ever had. I drive from out of town to see him when needed. He is very thorough and is not rushed so he explains everything and listen to you as well. I almost feel like he is a part of our family!
Ms Liz is the best. She listens, is knowledgeable, and attentive to every little detail. I?m blessed to have her as my NP.
Thank you Liz for everything!!!
She was very attentive with excellent communication skills. Also great interaction and understanding .
my wife has chronic health issues and l am encouraging her to become new patient
I saw Mindy Smith for a sick visit & this was my first time seeing her. She listened to all my concerns & even reached out to my other providers. She was a great medical professional!!!!
My doctor is wonderful. He has shown me such gentle care after [...]. He sees the lost I feel,
he is encouraging that I shall get thru to the side of
acceptance.
Dr. Lazaro is always very attentive to my medical needs. I appreciate his genuine concern and willingness to answer my questions and to help me stay healthy.
I met Dr Puri for the first time this week and like her very much! The only issue I have is that I wear hearing aids and I had a bit of trouble understanding her with her mask on…maybe I
could ask that she not wear it when she sees me?
Liz is awesome. She NEVER makes you feel like you don?t have her undivided attention. She does not push you out the door to get to the next patient. She genuinely cares about you and your input on what you feel you need even tho you don?t have the medical expertise.
Mindy Smith, NP that I see as my PCP is always and I do mean always knowledgeable about what’s going on with me and care about any condition I may bring to her concerning my health. She is a blessing to LMC and I wouldn’t want anyone else taking care of me and my family.
Dr. Mullens is my doc!
They r amazing! Kind, considerate, honest and respectful. I am content. Great doctor??
The two ladies at the desk r great as well.
I have been a patient of Dr. Koli for almost ten years. He is a great doctor and was recommended to me by my son who has been a patient of Dr. Koli too.
Dr. Koli is amazing! I highly recommend him. He is friendly, courteous and truly listens to his patients. He does not try to rush through your appointment to get to the next patient.
Dr Koli is probably the best primary care physician that I have ever had. Very knowledgeable, talks to patient on level that they can understand, and always discusses options on treatment (including pros and cons). I would highly recommend him!
Jessica D'Ancona has a very nice and friendly disposition, she totally seems invested in your care. She listens and asks about your health and concerns. She also lets you know she is here at anytime even after the visit should I have any questions or concerns. I feel like I am being heard and that she is totally here for her patients. I strongly believe she is a strong asset to Lexington medical, and a blessing.
Dr Lazaro is the best doctor. Always there for me physically and mentally. Been going to him for years.love the staff too. Anything I call about they get back to me very fast. Ty to all of you.
I recently moved to Columbia and started seeing Dr. Puri as my PCM. She is wonderful because she takes the time to hear my concerns and talk through avenues of treatment. She is a great listener. I look forward to continuing my care with her.
We Love Dr. Puri, she takes time ,explains everything. My niece brings me, I'm 85 & we just want to make sure we do what she explains to us. She takes time, very caring. Blessed to have her.
Elizabeth McMicken is an excellent care giver who demonstrates dedication to her profession. There has always been an obvious desire to render medical care and advice for healthy lifestyle since the first visit I had with her. She is a superb credit to employer and profession.
The doctor was very patient and willing to listen to my concerns regardless of how bizarre they may have sounded to some; and offered logical, practical solutions to soothe my worries and heal me in timely manner
Mrs. Jessica, she?s patient professional and she cares about her patience. She listens to me every time I have an appointment and she always gives me good recommendations and advice.
Such a relief. I've had a heck of a time finding an internal medicine practitioner - and even harder time not just having real issues just dismissed as unimportant. It's great to meet a young, female physician with a sense of humor, practical approach, and excellent referral connections. Every single person I met: front desk, medical assistant, phlebotomy, lab checkout- was smart, capable, efficient and friendly. Ten stars!
Jessica took over 45 mins with me and listened to all of my concerns to ensure we have a solid plan for my care. She?s very supportive and approachable!
Provider was rude. In trying to explain things I was cut off in mid sentence several times. Thankful they are not my primary, I will not ever see this doctor again.
Dr. Mullen is amazing! She is gentle, kind and polite. She is genuinely concerned and she looked up options for my treatment and gave great choices! She is amazing:)
I have peen a patient of Dr Ed Brown for about 29 years and I am very satisfied with the professionalism he provides! He is very thorough, interested, and knowledgeable! I very much appreciate the care he gives me and I respect his suggestions/recommendations for my health! I am 81 and he has been what I have needed to remain healthy!!!
