I believe Dr. Gatcombe is a very good caring physician. Many are not. She shows compassion, answers questions in a way I can understand. She does what is necessary to make me feel comfortable. She asks leading questions. She never makes me feel I am just another number.

Dr GATCOMBE is very much compassionate. My sense is she really cares about her patients. I feel comfortable with her and believe I am in good hands under her care.One of Dr GATCOMBE's nurses took the time to listen to me and share a little about her personal experience. It was helpful and it showed her to be human just like me.

Dr. Gotcombe was excellent. She indicated that I was going well and that I may want to continue to message my breast. She also inquired about my appointments with the other providers that I had. She was very attentive to me and my health. Excellent doctor.
