Dr. Woodall has reimagined the doctor to patient relationship I have previously encountered at Riverside. I would have likely gone to another provider/company for primary care had I not decided to switch to him. He listens to my concerns and genuinely cares about my health and making sure I am comfortable and fully understand decisions we make. He goes out of his way to offer alternative solutions to health issues, that have proven to be helpful. He communicates excpetionally well and has provided me with the best primary care I have ever had. Most importantly he takes the time to listen and gives exceptional feedback while ensuring the appointment does not feel rushed. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Woodall, as he clearly sets the standard for what a primary care provider should be.

My doctor thoroughly explained the results of the bloodwork and made changes to my prescriptions and explained everything to me. It was a very good experience. One thing I would like to add I failed to explain that the nurse practitioner not only listen to my comment about needing an eye doctor. She also made an appointment for me for which I very much appreciate and I thank her. That's all. Thank you.

Dr. Woodall was fantastic!! Moved from another RMG practice to see him, and the experience with this physician was night and day compared to my previous RMG provider. He reviewed my latest labs in depth, waited for understanding and gave pause for questions. He was not looking to "fill" an order, but rather provide guidance and insight on my health and future health needs. For a first visit, this clinician was prepared and made me feel as if I were the only patient for that day. I've already referred him to my boss to pass along to her husband who is also seeking a new provider.

When I first met Dr. Woodall, I thought he was too young to be out in the streets by himself! However, I was quickly proven Wrong. Dr. W is a fantastic diagnostician as well as a caring, well educated, well spoken as well as Kind and easy to understand.

Again I can not say enough positive things about my visit, the doctor, his team, or the practice as a whole. Everything was amazingly easy from start to finish. Nothing like my past experiences at other practices. Keep up the good work!
