The music in the waiting room is horrifying

When checking in, one girl was checking someone in, while two others were sitting and chatting, then after 10 minutes saw me waiting and then took care of checking me in.

The doctor was considerate and helpful she helped me get my son into a rehab after his accident

Everyone was very helpful

I had a great experience at this office with NP Longfellow. I am hoping to get her as my PCP. She listened, was attentive and made what has been a very traumatic experience a little easier. She has given me hope that I will receive the care I need to help me recover. I am looking forward to being in the care of this office.

Excellent experience (as it goes). Got what I needed and more that I didn't know. Thanks

I didn't see my regular pcp as she was unavailable, however I expressed the urgency of the appointment and was able to get in very quick. I trust all of the doctors and staff at this location so I was okay seeing someone else. The appointment went great. I felt heard and my pain was taken seriously.

Very pleased
September 05, 2024
I found the provider very kind and empathetic. I don't know if I've been there enough for them to know me personally that well or my history, but I found her very, very helpful.

Well, I didn't get my prescription. I was supposed to get it's for dizziness and she was supposed to write it in and I went to the pharmacy and she didn't write in my meclizine and I need it for the dizziness.

I would like to have this lady as my full-time primary care doctor. She did a good job, she had the experience, and she took her time. Thank you.

Everything went as expected

Thanks

My initial call was answered by someone who seemed knowledgeable in triage and was compassionate/empathetic and obtained the earliest appointment as possible. She also helped to make an appointment with a new provider for my annual physical. I was very pleased with the reception staff as it seems to have improved since my last visit. I was greeted pleasantly and the next person assigning my lab appointment was also pleasant. I noted that they did not raise their voice so the whole reception area could overhear, nor did they carry on a conversation with a co-worker while waiting on me. I was seen within 15 minutes of my appointment reservation which is also appreciated.

great view from the office
June 25, 2024
I would not recommend
June 13, 2024
It's always a good experiance.
June 11, 2024
I have never had a bad encounter with anyone there.
June 04, 2024
Karen was kind and honest and spoke to us with knowledge and concern. Grateful that she saw my mother and gave us beneficial information to go forward.
May 02, 2024
I just adored Karen. She listened to everything I said and developed a good plan for me based on that information.
April 26, 2024
This was my first visit I was treated with the utmost respect and greatly appreciate it. I am joining the practice at Gardiner Family Practice because of a bad experience at a different practice where I had no say in my health-care and did not like that.
April 22, 2024
I did not see my doctor. I saw the nurse practitioner who ordered tests that I needed to be accurately diagnosed. It has been 10 years that I have been telling the doctor about this pain. I wish I had seen the nurse practitioner earlier.
April 20, 2024
Karen listened attentively to my concerns and assured me she would pass on my information to my PCP. She was knowledgeable and I left the appointment feeling supported.

So it was a very tough appointment learning you had lesions on your liver and a tumor in your pancreas, I was all by myself, and they did a super job and keeping me mentally and physically comfortable
April 15, 2024
Karen Longfellow listened to our concerns and responded in a helpful, practical manner.
March 29, 2024
I had such a great experience with Karen. She was body positive. She was willing to let me lead the conversation as I needed, but also gave helpful suggestions. She was super great and I would definitely recommend her.
March 26, 2024
I didn't get any call back like I was supposed to.
March 07, 2024
The providers are excellent the registration staff are awesome the problem is one trying to get through and two trying to get an appointment
March 06, 2024
I would give Karen Longfellow an A+ . I could not thank her enough for "listening." She did not dismiss my request for help with a lengthy vendetta with my stomach.
March 04, 2024
Nothing but good to say. Thanks so much for your care and concern.
February 27, 2024
Karen was great and listened about my stay in hospital and gave her thoughts but listened to mine as well couldn't have been better
February 15, 2024
Having been in the private practice medical arena for 45 yrs I find myself not really liking this practice very much at all. I know how "medicine" is done now has changed dramatically esp. post covid...but.... I have friends who are pt.'s of other various practices and they are shown more interest and more care concerning whatever reason they're there for.
February 13, 2024
Dr.Longfellow was absolutely amazing thoughtful and kind. I really felt she was listening to me.
January 31, 2024
This was the first time that I'd seen Karen Longfellow, so obviously she wouldn't be as up to date on me and my history in the past, but she was very up to date on the situation that I had recently, which was a mild stroke. I liked her. She was very informative, and I would love to see her again.

When checking out there were 2 staff sitting at the windows. I was greeted or waited on. I was simply told to go to the next window. I went to the next window and was ignored. I think this process could be looked into. Don't have the window open if you can't help patients right then. It's awkward and feels impersonal especially when it's very apparent there are others there that could help which is what happened.
December 15, 2023
Every single person from check in to exit was phenomenal, professional and pleasant! Thank you for a great experience!! It's obvious the people I encountered enjoyed working there.
December 11, 2023
Karen is very pleasant and listens to your needs if any. I've seen her a few times and have never had a bad experience.
December 06, 2023
So many bad experiences there it would be very hard to recommend it I kind of feel like I'm stuck there definitely do not trust the doctors
November 30, 2023
The NP was very professional, caring and friendly. But why is it the lad tech. doesn't identify herself by name
