She made the walked the line of professionalism and coffee with a trusted friend; which was perfect for to my mind.

Claire Ward is amazing. She's knowledgeable, kind, warm and professional. She knows her patients well and clearly informs herself about them before she ever enters the exam room. She never rushes you.

This was my second time seeing Claire and I am so glad to have found her. I had a variety of doctors/OBs before who made me feel more like a number to process; Claire makes me feel like a person and always makes me feel comfortable to share my problems with. I trust her evaluations for ongoing care because I feel like we can have an open discussion and utilize her expertise to make decisions.

Claire is amazing! I love the fact that she listened, took notes, reviewed noted from prior visits so she remembered me and my situation, family, etc, when she walked in the room. Maybe she remembered without reviewing, but that seems impossible with how many patients she sees. I really appreciated how knowledgeable/ she knew a year later not everyone is like that
