“Patina is perfect for me. Their staff is very professional and spends time with you to get to know you as a person and not just a patient.”
April






I finally believe someone cares about me and my health and takes the time to go over things with me. I have recommended Patina to many people.
Ellen






“So happy I found this practice. No more stressing on how to get to see medical practitioners. If needed, help is just a call away! I have had to call on the holiday twice and was able to connect without any problem. What a relief!”
Marla






“We are so grateful we found Patina to care for our mom! She is 98 years old and can't [go] out for doctor visits. Patina offers the personal care she needs to keep healthy and well.”
Lori






"The visit was patient-centered, professional, and comprehensive! It was a welcome change in its holistic and respectful approach!"
Elizabeth






“I'm amazed at how much they are in contact with me … In a medical world where making an appointment can mean a wait of weeks, they are available. The use of Health Champions really adds a lot. They helped with getting an appointment with a specialist.”
Rudy






“Quick appointments. I was well attended to, listened to, and respected.”
Laura






“I have only had my first at home visit so far but it was very thorough and went very well. They even set me up with home visits from a podiatrist, blood testing service and eye care group.”
John






“I live in a rural area and having [virtual] health care, with an occasional home visit by an RN, is convenient. Now, I do not have to drive an hour for medical advice. Another advantage is the support my husband receives. As my caregiver, he is able to contact this team for guidance with regard to my care.”
Deborah






“Michelle , like the rest of the staff at Patina, are focused on 65+ patients. She was accessible which is a great feature of this practice, listens, is empathetic and values your time.”
Steve






“Not only did Val and Michelle meet the needs of the reason for my outreach, but expanded the conversation to make sure all of my needs or possible needs were discussed, and where possible, a plan put in place. I am a true convert to this more personalized and responsive option for care.”
Rita






“I really love my nurse practitioner Katie and the rest of the team, JC and Ruth. They are very, very pleasant and very helpful – very kind overall, just very good people that help me when I need them. Thank you Patina Team.”
Carol






“I really like the fact that you come to me and I don’t have to wonder who sat in the chair before me at my doctors office, not only in the waiting room but in the office too. When I hurt my back in Feb, I called in the morning and was able to get an appointment that afternoon. You’re always on time too.”
C Ward






“The ability to have virtual appointments is not only convenient but saves me a lot of time.”
Eric






“Felt very comfortable and confident after our Patina visit that my mother is in good hands and will be well-taken care of. Thank you.”
Ekaterini






“I have had visits from my PCP and a nurse for my annual physical exam. When I call with a question, I get a return call with an answer the same day. This is great service. I could not ask for more.”
Deanna
