Review for Richard Taavon, MD, FACOG

Annual Well Woman Exam

I have been Dr. Taavon's patient for over 10 years and i find the whole annual visit to be fast, efficient, professional and it gives me "peace of mind" to know that I am "well" for another year. I also really like being able to get my annual mammogram at the same visit instead of having to go somewhere else at a different time. Everyone with whom I interacted was professional yet didn't treat me like a "piece of meat", ie. they seemed to care about me as a person even though I am an "older lady". (:>
