Alyson Willis, DO

Thank you for seeing me on a short notice and covering ultrasound results

I was transferred to Dr Willis from another clinic and doctor, so I didn’t know what to expect. Also, I was mid-process to undergo surgery, and I felt skeptical about changing doctors in the middle of this situation. The doctor and her intern did a nice job of leading into the discussion and establishing a comfort level, while also sharing good information about what to expect next. I was pleased with the experience and my fears were allayed, so I’m proceeding ahead with more confidence!

I felt very valued which I am finding more and more rare based on my age. I have had the feeling of being "placed on The Shelf" so to speak by others in the Medical Field.. Even had a Physician state I really didn't need to keep a OB/GYN...because I didn't have a uterus any longer. True, but I am still a whole woman with needs to have a Well Woman exam annually. So, yes, Alyson values all patients I assume. I am an example.

She's the BEST!

During my visit, a medical resident entered the room and asked a very large number of questions in a rapid, checklist-style manner without first reviewing my chart or establishing rapport. The interaction felt rushed and impersonal, and the tone came across as judgmental rather than patient-centered. The resident stated they were going to perform a pelvic exam rather than asking for my consent or discussing it beforehand. When I expressed discomfort, there appeared to be miscommunication and a lack of acknowledgment of my concerns. Clear consent, explanation, and patient comfort are especially important during sensitive exams, and I did not feel those standards were met. Overall, the encounter would have benefited from better communication, active listening, informed consent, and a more respectful, collaborative approach to care. I don’t even recall her introducing herself by name, just that she was a resident.

She’s an amazing woman, I love her so much! 💛💛

Best doctor around.

Shows concern about people.

I only spent less than 5 minutes with her so I didn't develop much of an opinion, I wish she explained to me more about what the nurses were telling me and my next steps.

Thank you so much for the great attentive care!

She listens and takes her time

She needs to read and listen better

The visit was not the problem. It was after that is the problem. I make my appointment a year out, but still it was over a year last time.

Dr. Willis was easy to talk to and friendly. She didn't rush me.
