Reviews
"The receptionist was so rude. My dad was needing a doctor and he had heard great things about Dr. Kimmel and was who he requested not now though, good customer service goes along way!!!!"
"I started going to this practice a little over a year ago and I see NP Heather Landis. She is kind, patient, and attentive to my needs. Thank you! I also saw Dr. Earwood due to terrible migraines and high blood pressure. He was a God-Send for me after dealing with migraines most my life.!! Thank you!!! I want to thank Jennifer for her awesome blood taking skills. I have very hard to find small veins and have had bad cases in the past at other places sticking me more than once."
"I had the pleasure of checking myself in to this facility today and seeing Dr. Earwood for my medical related problem. Not only is his staff efficient and professional, they are courteous and made me feel at home. Dr. Earwood is an extremely “down to earth” professional and well versed on the subject we were discussing. I would recommend him and this practice to anyone who likes being welcomed in such a professional manner and enjoying “old school” straight talk in solving your problem."
"Finally found someone who knows how to draw blood. I have always had problems with nurses having to take blood but let me just say that Jennifer Mace at Elk River Medical Associates is a true pro! If you have difficult to find veins, you will understand this review. In the very first attempt, Jennifer found a vein and in under 45 seconds, the blood draw was over. This have never ever happened for me and I was so impressed. Thank you, Jennifer"
"Wow! If you are looking for an old fashioned country-doctor, look no further! Dr. Earwood is as good as it gets. He takes time to get to know you and as much time as it takes to accurately diagnose you. He is a humble man, yet thoroughly professional and seems to have a wealth of knowledge. We have also used his associate, Dr. Kimmel, on a couple occasions when Dr. Earwood was not available. I recommend him equally as highly. These guys really are what medical care should be--what it USED to be. The only downside is that they don't see kids. I so wish they would. Use Elk River Medical Associates. You will be glad you did."
