This is a caring facility; everyone talks to you like a human. Truely feels like there are just there to help you. So grateful!

Great care and explanations
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 12/4/2025
Samantha has been excellent in every way in the care she has provided and the patience in outlining options without pressuring me to make a decision until I was ready e.g. After outlining various treatments she would also say that no treatment was an option that some people just choose to live with a low level of pain. She always takes time to listen my concerns, provide any information I request, and support whatever decisions I make. I would recommend her to anyone and would never willingly have anyone else treat me!

Best of the Best

She forwarded me to another Dr and he said she contacted him several times to remind him I had a bad reaction with getting a nerve block on a shoulder surgery so I am now terrified to get one. They thought I had heart attack
- 2 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/17/2025
It was ok as long as I went along with the doctor's treatment plan. Ottis to explain that I wasn't trying to be disrespectful, and she hung up on me while I was still talking. Yes, it was intentional. If you keep record's , check them out.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/17/2025
If I could give Sam a 10, I would! She was amazing! [...] I was extremely nervous to have my stitches removed. She was patient, kind, talked me through it. She was finished and I truly didn't even know she started! She answered all my questions and went above and beyond to make me feel heard. She is amazing!!!

Seemed very knowledgeable and caring
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/28/2025
Especially appreciate her explaining what options might be available if the current treatment becomes ineffective. It's good to know that there is not just one path to one solution and I feel confident that she will provide all the information I need to make the right decision for me as time goes on.

I was treated by PA Soltis, she was outstanding in every way and I would not hesitate to have her repeat the procedure.

I will recommend this Dr., PA-c and complete team to anyone needing this healing.

Ms. Soltis was very friendly, caring and knowledgeable. Excellent PA-C.

My PA was Samantha Soltis. She explained everything about a procedure which she will perform. She explained everything very well and in way that I was able to comprehend it all.
