Dr. Dwyer is amazing! She takes the needed time to talk with me, listen to my concerns, and choose best paths of treatment. I tend to worry and she has a natural way of calming my fears. I'd highly recommend her to anyone.

I like Dr. Dwyer very much; however, trying to get an appointment sooner than 3 months out is not acceptable.

It was a pleasant and effective visit. Dr Dwyer asked if she could use AI to help record her notes. I agreed and found her to be more attentive and engaged face to face, without having to spend as much time on the computer screen

I had loved my previous provider (outside of Riverside) and was apprehensive about starting up with a new provider but Dr Dwyer has been amazing. She (and her staff) is always available to answer questions and always makes me feel heard.
