Review for Dr. Smith
I have been seeing Dr. Winter for about 3 years now and every time I see her I am satisfied with her care. She is personable, attentive and listens to me. I have been a patient at this location for over 40 years and she is the 3rd Dr. I have seen there.

Review for Dr. Winter
I’ve been seeing Dr.Ballard for years and he is one of the best PCP’s I’ve had. He listens and truly cares what kind of care you receive. I will not see another Doctor. If need be I’ll wait for an appointment for him!
