Dr. Huffaker - Urogynecologist

"Jennifer the nurse practitioner was great. In my situation she explained to me all of the options I have. She was very attentive to my questions and looked at me in my face to answer."

"I feel no woman should trust this office with her body. Negativity permeates there,but the main complaint is a nervous,tense,uptight,oily haired,disheveled,pushy nurse practitioner named Jennifer.I accompanied my partner to her appointments.My partner is 4’11” and was born with a genetic disorder.On our first visit,I felt the tenseness while in the waiting room,seeing the nurse practitioner Jennifer as she walked into the space of the office receptionists.She looked completely distressed,uptight,and angry in facial expression and body language,and I hoped that she would not be the one working with my partner.Unfortunately,she was. When we got called,the nurse taking my partner's vitals was trying to talk about her own personal experience of having the surgery my partner was there to inquire about(we were also there to have a physical procedure done that day).Suddenly,the Jennifer woman burst in,all tense and uptight,and berated the nurse,telling her to hurry up because "I can't do my part until you finish your part."Right in front of us.Obviously,this did not put my partner,who was already nervous about her upcoming procedure,at ease,and was of course completely unprofessional. I went to the waiting room while the Jennifer woman performed the physical procedure on her.Consequently,I should have stayed to protect her,and you better believe I would have if I had been in there.I sat outside the open doorway to the exam room hallway.I heard my partner cry out in pain.I didn't go back there because she only did it once,and we were in a doctor's office where they're supposed to know how to deal with that.My mistake.Shortly,I heard two nurses,very possibly the nurse and the Jennifer woman,snickering under their breaths with each other in that hallway,with the strong possibility that they thought my partner crying out in pain was somehow funny. Later,the doctor himself comes out and asks me to go to my partner's room for a discussion of surgery options.He seemed unhappy and never looked either of us in the eye.I was not impressed. Later,my partner said that the Jennifer woman caused her a lot of pain and did not try to be gentle at all;in fact,she said it felt like things were being very roughly jammed inside of her and that the Jennifer woman actually got angry that my partner was in pain,which is a completely idiotic,inappropriate attitude from someone who works in the medical profession. The next visit,we saw the Jennifer woman snap at a receptionist in front of the waiting room.So on both visits,she snapped at her co-workers right in front of us. This time,my partner had the other nurse(the one who took vitals on the first visit)do the same physical procedure.Again, I was out in the waiting room,and once again,I wish I had been in there.My partner started feeling pain,and the nurse snapped at her,just like the Jennifer woman had,and it was decided that the physical procedure would not be done. Later,my partner called the office and was connected to the Jennifer woman before she could tell them that all she wanted was to just leave a quick message.The Jennifer woman got on the line with an attitude,and when my partner told her that she wasn't being given the chance to speak,the Jennifer woman told her that "we don't have a good therapeutic relationship."True-because of the Jennifer woman's childish attitude and behavior. We only accepted disrespect,and I only let them get away with it,because my partner was desperate for help for a serious condition,but never again will we accept that kind of treatment,no matter how desperate. Except for the receptionists,this office should be ashamed of itself.Anyone who is stressed,cannot handle pressure,and does not know how to deal with people has no business being in medicine, much less working with women's bodies.We have been to others here,including two amazing doctors,Dr. Lindsay Remy and Dr. Mark Withrow,and we were treated very well.The contrast with this office is striking."

"My experience with Dr Huffaker has been exceptional! He is a wonderful doctor! His credentials are impeccable! His office staff and nurses are THE best! My care was handled with the utmost professionalism and kindness! I will forever be indebted to Dr Huffaker for the success of my operation and care!"

"So glad my primary care doctor referred me to Dr Huffaker. He performed surgery on me a few months ago and he and his staff have been treating me since. All the staff at his office have been great. Always helpful and friendly."

"Dr Huffaker is very pleasant, professional and extremely informative. He was concerned about my personal and family history of cancer and took extra steps to assure that was not the issue. His staff has been exceptional and have helped me through this extensive surgery. They've been available to answer any of my questions and concerns before and after surgery even returning calls as late as 6 pm. I am still healing but I'm very happy with how I've been treated and the surgery. The only issue would be the office hours. It would be nice if someone was available to take calls either earlier or later in the day, even to take messages for a call back."
