I've had bad delay experiences every time I've gone into this office. I'm contemplating switching from Optum all together.

Very nice and courteous. She was very informative and thorough.
3/23/2021
I would not recommend because wait times in clinic are so long.
9/15/2020
She was awful. She did not introduce herself upon entering the room. There was no acknowledgment of the wait time. She talked over me then concluded by saying it really wasn't a "big deal." My autistic son was quite disturbed by the conclusion. My children have been seen by Dr Nitcher, primarily and other physicians in the practice over the past 12 years. We've been thoroughly pleased. I would never allow my children to be seen by her again.
8/19/2020
She always takes time to talk & listen.
