I am a medicare patient and they fit me in fast as a new patient. It does take a few calls to work things out but the doc is worth the time.

Friendly staff. Dr. Appleby was responsive, listened to my concerns, and developed a plan. Additionally I was able to get in as a new patient the same month I called. Most new patient appointments for other providers are at least 3 months out which I believe is unreasonable.

Dr. Appleby always comes into the appointment prepared & up to speed on your current vitals & history. I have been a patient of Dr. Appleby’s for seven years & I have referred others to him. He always comes in with a plan of care for the next six months & you never feel rushed.

Heartless wording and bedside manor when my 21 year old son overdosed. He was abrupt and really didn't show much empathy or compassion. He was inattentive to his condition. Yes, I fully known the difference I am an RN as well and have worked with hundreds of doctors. This was 8 years ago and it still sits with me. I am kinda surprised by the review maybe he just treats people suffering with the disease of addiction poorly. I hope he does better now. I lost my son a few days later.
