I can't put into words how much my family has depended on Dr. Scoles for always being available day or night with our health concerns. We treasure him as our doctor and as a good friend. Thank you, Dr. Scoles for all you do for us.
Thankfully we haven't had any great health tragedies in the last year. It's comforting to know that when health issues arise we have a doctor, with support staff, that we both have complete confidence in.
Dr. Scoles has consistently given me the advice I need and repeated it when I have not followed it. He has referred me to other specialist physicians when I have needed referrals. On the whole I can't imagine any physician doing a better job of looking after my health.
I have great confidence in Dr. Scoles. He and his staff make a wonderful team of professionals. I know that anytime, night, day or weekends, my doctor is available. This group knows me personally, and I feel that I get the best medical care. Thank you, Dr. Scoles, for making my good health your number one priority and for giving me the time necessary to listen perceived medicall needs.
I am glad and thankful Dr. Scoles is my doctor because of his sincere care, which has a deep foundation in his love of God. I feel I get more than just excellent scientific perspective on healing. DGM
