"Dr covered all the bases in a professional and sincere manor"

"I was a patient here for 6 months. I discontinued my relationship here about 4 months ago and still get angry about the "care" I received here. I had to follow up with the office *multiple times for every referral* they sent for bloodwork or a specialist because the multiple lab/specialist offices *never received the referrals*. I had to follow up again with the office and my doctor to get any feedback on the results of the labs. For what I was paying, I at least expect the front office to double check that referrals go through (not just faxing it and forgetting about it! or forgetting about sending them altogether). I feel that the care I received was dismissive. I had and continue to have serious health issues - I was told to remove red food dye from my diet and meditate and sent on my way. I also received emails to watch one of the doctors give talks about the benefits of intermittent fasting, which has been proven through medical research to be harmful because it's basically just a rebranded eating disorder. I am not a doctor and yet it was so easy for me to look up the accepted research on this junk. The final straw was when I saw that they double-charged my membership fee. I paid quarterly and the past two quarters were charged just once, how was the third quarter of auto-pay charged double?? They refunded the double charge but on top of everything else it all points to serious dysfunction from this office and the entire WellcomeMD organization. After all that I canceled my membership, and I wrote an email telling them all of the reasons why I was cancelling. I had to threaten to post a review to hear back from them. They did address my concerns - "we have the fax receipts from sending the referrals" and "the system shouldn't have charged you twice, but we refunded the second charge" were their excuses and defenses. I cannot point to a good experience with the office that made any of my membership fees worth it and I would still like them refunded but of course that's not going to happen. I expected to receive AT LEAST better than average care for the amount of money I was paying and the promises made by this office. My health was the least of their concerns when it should have been the priority. I wish I didn't waste my time and money here."

"Dr Woodward does not rush me in and out, does not make me feel as if I am a number, on an assembly line or just a pay check. If an emergency issue occurs I do not have to wait days or weeks to see him and his staff will work to get me in asap. He listens and answer all my questions. He ask questions, shows he is truly interested in my life not only physically, mentally, but personally as well. He is up to date with new medicines and treatments for the sick , but also knows how to treat the well. Very few doctors know how to treat the well to prevent becoming I?ll. I feel very fortunate to have him and his staff caring for me. Judy Poole"

"Dr. Woodward is the best doctor I have ever been to. I have had several issues going on and he worked everyone one of them out for me. I was able to get off of some of my meds and replaced them with natural meds that aren't bandaiding the problem. He cares about his patients and listens to them."

"My wife and I have been with Dr Woodward for the past 3 years. We have found his advice and guidance very helpful. Entering our 60’s, we highly value having a health advocate on our side when facing medical decisions. We are both heather people now and feel better about the future having him on our side. Dr. Woodward has our highest recommendation."
