Dr. Saunders has been diligent and helpful in addressing my chronic medical conditions and referred me to new specialists as needed who were excellent.

Saunders is an excellent doctor who I know cares about me as an individual, and always expresses concern about my unique family situation (my adult son has an acquired TBI). He is very attentive and always actively listens to my concerns and is willing to have a complete discussion of alternatives and reasoning for path forward regarding any health issues that I bring to him. He ALWAYS devotes the time necessary for my appointment and exam, and is not in a rush to get to the next patient, which I GREATLY value, even though it may mean that I have to wait to see him.Awesome doctor! Please don't use all of his time for administrative stuff, because I still need him to do REAL DOCTOR STUFF.

Dr Saunders is a caring, capable and professional clinician. After many years of relying on him I can't imagine wanting a different general practitioner

Dr saunders has been my primary for many many years. It's a shame that his management executives have decided to pull him into administrative duties so he's only in clinic two days a week. He's such an excellent doctor. It's a shame they have to use him for administrative duties. But the clinic has always been quite good and I would recommend them to anyone. It's just too bad that Dr saunders is no longer available for new patients.

Dr. Saunders took the time to listen and addressed all my meds. And issues I had. I had an ear issue and he prescribed a treatment and referred me to an eye, ear and throat office.

Dr Saunders was as always great. The nurse was rude and unhelpful. Just argued with me. I have been seeing Dr/ Saunders for 20 + years and I have never been treated like that by a Nurse.

I had to wait in the exam room a little longer than usual (maybe 20 minutes) but Dr. Saunders was his usual caring friendly self during the Wellness Visit. I really like having him for my doctor.

The main reason for my visit was not addressed until the very end. I would have liked more time re: that. Also follow-up was not really clear in my mind. I was told to get an x-ray, but only the assistant told me I had to go to a place out of town. I don't drive that far. Dr. Saunders did spend a good amount of time with me, which I appreciated.

Doctor Greg Saunders is an excellent care provider, I've been a patient of Greg's for many years and when he left his other employment I search far and near to relocate Doctor Saunders and I happen to walk from my dentist appointment one day in the parking lot when I happen to notice Doctor Saunders. My relief, long story short, I got reconnected with Doctor Saunders and I'm glad to say you folks have an EXCELLENT DOCTOR!!! And that I'm now back under the care of this professional medical doctor for my yearly appointments.He is a very personable, polite and caring listener and gives instruction in a clear concise detail which allows you to understand clearly your medical needs and always comes across with solutions and ideas on how to best take care of yourself. He cares for his patients and It shows! KUDOS for having him on your staff.

Unfortunately, he has taken an administration position at the hospital, so only has very short practice hours. I really like him, but will be looking for another GP.

Ambivalent about Dr. Saunders' promotion: he certainly is thorough, understandable, effective... but now will be harder to get on his reduced schedule - good for him!
