Dr Halter takes the time to listen

Dr. Halter Is extremely thorough. She is an extraordinary doctor, very detail oriented.
It was so nice to have Dr. Halter listen to and address my concerns without being dismissive of my symptoms as just due to being overweight, and/or, just depression/anxiety/perimenopause.
Although I like Dr. Halter, she often seems distracted and in a hurry (which she probably is). She doesn't often ask particularly probing questions, and explanations are sometimes not thorough.

I have been seeing Dr. Halter for 10+ years and have never once had anything but a fantastic experience with her. Not only is she knowledgeable, kind and a great doctor, she's a wonderful and empathetic person. I feel both heard and seen with her. I can come in with any issue (on a few occasions, embarrassing issues) and I never feel awkward or judged. When the situation calls for it she refers me to specialists. I feel confident in her abilities to make the right call, every time. Even when I email her on the portal, she's quick and thorough in her responses. [...] I am very thankful to have her as my primary physician.
