After having a truly horrific experience with doctors in the Raleigh area, I found a practice with Doctors who not only care but are knowledgeable. My first doctor here was Sandra Thananart. Her and her nurse always returned my calls, listened to me while I was in their office, and gave me a truly positive experience in dealing with medical professionals. At this time I recently found that I was diabetic. She was upfront that she did not have specialized training with diabetics. She directed me to the Raleigh Endocrine Associates (Read Review). She left about a year ago to another State, and was replaced with Christina Crater who is just as good. C.C. has experience with diabetics and has been great. She spends the time she is with me, listening to my issues and not rushing me out. My husband (good cop-bad cop) comes with me to Dr. appointments and we both agreed she was excellent. The practice has been good with keeping the appointments of patients, Once I was kept waiting for 30 minutes (they took in an urgent case, non ER). But usually I am seen within 5 minutes of my time.
On occasion in the past I had the flu and was unable to see my regular doctor (on vacation) and I went to see another doctor or use the Urgent Care in the same building. They were also great and was able to treat my problem, sinus infections, etc.
