I don't like going to the doctor. It's scary. However, sometimes it is necessary and probably in one's best interest to have a primary care physician. Finding a doctor is a very personal experience. Not one doctor is going to be right for everyone. I came to choose Dr. Boyd because she is young, a female, close to my job and had a positive Yelp review. I mention these things because in my mind using these criteria gave me a pretty good chance of finding a doctor that I liked and felt comfortable with. So for instance, I only mention her age because my experience with older doctors, especially if you are a younger patient, is that they tend to devote very little time to hearing your issues. If you have more than one thing you want to talk about, you generally have to make multiple appointments. Not the case with Dr. Boyd. She was willing to talk about everything that was on my mind. And I only mention she is a female because, for me, it is easier to talk to a woman.
Now, I've only met Dr. Boyd once. I've also never been through any sort of trauma that required sustained attention. That being said, I have no doubt that she would be just as professional and attentive during those circumstance as she was during my visit to her clinic. I suggest to everyone to do their due diligence before choosing a healthcare professional, but in my case Dr. Boyd is the cat's pajamas. read more
