I have visited Dr. Staats for aesthetic services such as laser hair removal and facial IPL laser treatments. The pricing is very reasonable, and she offers treatment packages or the option to purchase individual treatments. Her office is conveniently located and she is flexible with scheduling appointments. I highly recommend her services.

Two years ago, I became tired of being rushed through doctors office visits will no real evaluation of my health and sometimes no real exam or proper testing. I transferred to Dr. Staats and changed my entire overall health and wellness. I have thorough evaluations by someone who personalizes my care. I have proper annual testing with real follow up! I have improved my weight, exercise, diet and overall general health with measurable tests and lab data! I am not told to go to immediate care and see someone I don’t know every time I have a problem. I finally have a physician who really cares about me and my health- a real partner in my care! This is what medicine is supposed to be! Dr. Staats has even managed to make a compliant and willing partner of my husband who was always resistant to proactive healthcare which is nothing short of a miracle! Thank you for all you do! It has actually improved our lives.

Don't waste your time. The staff, with the exception of the receptionists, are completely rude. I made an appoinment thru their patient portal and the scheduler didn't update their system with my appoinment. The wouldnt honor the appoinment even though they admitted it was their mistake and that this had happened quiet frequently. And even though I had been waiting for 8 days to get in to see my PCM. Imagine if this had been your kid and this happened. Won't be going back.

Dr Staats genuinely cares for and listens to her patients. She has always taken very good care of me, whether directly or by referral to specialists.

I called this office asking if they were accepting new patients and I was told yes. I was instructed to fill out paperwork from their website and email it back to them. The paperwork asked for a lot of personal information and medical history including family medical history. Email is not a secure way of sending this information as there are literally no privacy protections. To be told to email this personal information was my first red flag. This doctor came recommended for alternative medicine which is what I am looking for so I decided to forge ahead anyway.

I drove to the office and dropped off my paperwork instead of sending it and I was told someone would contact me. A little over a week later I received a letter in the mail (again with all my personal information and history included with the letter). It stated they would not take me as a patient. The reason I was given was the practice was at their quota for control substance patients. I am not seeking control substances! In fact the opposite! I am seeking a doctor looking to help me find alternatives to standard medicine and that takes a more holistic approach. If someone had taken the time to have a conversation with me they would have found that out.

I am appalled by your process and therefore think people new to this area should know you look at paperwork over having a conversation with someone. Medical treatment should be personalized for each individual, not a clinical statistic based on paperwork.

I have a true fear I was just discriminated against! There was no basis or understanding for who I am or what sort of direction I would like my own medical treatment to go. I am sure I dodged a bullet not being accepted by your office. I hope my review will help others to do the same!

We are new to the area and really researched to find a physician we felt would be a good fit for my husband and I. We both had a great experience with Dr. Staats and liked her as a physician. Unfortunately we will not be returning to her practice. I had some tests ordered by her nurse practitioner that I have questioned and have called her office 3 times requesting a return phone call. I left two messages and also the 3rd time talked to a physical person who said they would get back to me which again, they never did. I hate doing a negative review but if I can't reach staff and there is no follow through I don't feel I can trust the practice. Sorry Dr. Staats.

I called there for my wife to have her self check but I was told that I have to pay over $2000 to be in their program and that’s not acceptable or feasible. If they’re that good of a doctors they don’t need to take peoples money because we already have wonderful insurance so please make me understand why they need over $2000 to be in a program that I’ve never heard of.

I signed up with Dr. Statts after my long time physician moved away from the area. On first meeting, I thought we would be a good fit, and so did she hence her accepting me as a patient. Soon after we were notified that she would be charging a $100+ annual fee just to have her as a doctor of record. We went ahead and paid that, and then on the next FOUR occasions when I called requesting an appointment, her staff told me to go to the Emergency Room because she couldn’t see me for a hurt foot, a headache, a fall off a bike, and a hurt wrist. Finally, I just fired her as my doctor because why pay her an annual fee when my primary care was being managed by the ER doctor She seemed to be a nice person, but that’s no way to run a medical practice.
