Jim is a most caring and interested doctor. He makes you feel as though you were family. He wants to know how your whole family is doing and asks often about my grown children. Couldn't have had my last baby without him. He was there for me in every way. I consider him to be my friend. I truly wish there were more of him around. It would make for better health care all around. Tina and his staff are awesome as well.

Has been my doc for 20 years. Can be a bit flippant when chatting but when it's time for the serious bit, he's attentive, supportive and compassionate and never overbearing or dismissive. I have complete faith in his expertise. He is fortunate to have Tina as an assistant who helps to keep him (relatively) on time and who always has such a nice smile.

Jim is a very knowledgeable, caring, and compassionate doctor. I've been a patient of his for 10 years now. He takes time to discuss and explain things in plain english as opposed to using hard to understand medical jargon. He is genuinely concerned with the health of his patients. Tina and Diane are awesome as well.

Our family of 4 thinks the world of Jim. He is very caring, compassionate, a great listener, affable, extremely funny, a wonderful supporter of attached parenting and breastfeeding and we trust him. MDs who give you their email address and home phone number are very few and far between. We hope you stay in practice forever Jim....PPJ&J

Jim isn't just a doctor; he is a friend, confidante, advisor and a doctor who only prescribes medications as a last resort, not as a way to usher you out; he's been my family md for 16 years and he's the best...even has some pretty good jokes but when he tells you them right after surgery the laughung can be painful! Jim rocks! and so does tina

Dr. Jim delivered my two sons and my two grandchildren and has seen us through all levels of care from runny noses to surgeries to childhood diabetes. Takes time, very caring, is more of a health partner and willing to support you in seeking alternatives. Good jokes. He is the best.
