From the Provider
“It’s important to me to make sure every person has a warm, supportive and non-judgmental experience with me as a provider. I value being a trusted partner in healthcare decision making: having open, two-way conversations and helping people reach decisions based on the best available medical information and honest discussion of their priorities and goals for their own health. It’s so rewarding to help people consider their options and I feel very lucky to be able to use my expertise in this way.”

I appreciate Dr. Frederick’s up front thoughtful discussion on perimenopause. It made me feel at ease to ask questions and share concerns

Dr. Carrie Frederick was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and professional! Fantastic experience with my Doctor!
All the staff were warm, friendly, and knowledgeable.
Dr. Miles is the best!
It was my visit with Dr. Miles. She was great.
Dr. Miles is a truly outstanding physician. I'm a big worrier, and she was so nice about that and answered my questions.
Dr. Miles is the first physician I have worked with that I felt asked me important questions (pronouns, circumcision, being comfortable being touched etc) that I didn’t realize were important until she asked them. I appreciated the concern especially as a queer person in a queer family to know more about me and I felt she heard my concerns.
Dr Miles is very thorough and also very personable. I really enjoy interaction with her
Love all the providers and staff at this office and grateful for the care I receive here.
Dr. Miles is fabulous - she knows my medical history (and that of my family) and is genuinely caring.
