I continue to feel that Dr. Pepple is one of the finest physicians I've encountered in all my years in healthcare systems, both in Washington and California. She is highly competent, thoroughly professional, a very good listener, and keeps me involved in decisions involving my care.
Always takes time to say how I am doing & what medicine need to be continued.
Dr. Pepple always gives very detailed explanations. Her explanations are very detailed, but she uses patient friendly language and does not overwhelm me with technical vocabulary. She is very responsive to my feedback.
She's my favorite provider!
