    Dr. Stanley takes time to read over my records before proceeding, and - he looked me in the eyes. He looks at me - NOT my age. Some doctors don't care. He does.

    First and only visit with Dr. Underwood. My wife and I were both impressed with his plesant attitude and were very comfortable talking to him. Did not feel the hurry up and get out for the next patient like it is in Gainesville.I/we believe the Drs. At Gainesville could learn something in Dr. Underwoods office.

    Stan is an excellent communicator. He knows what is on my chart and makes me feel like he knows what he is doing . Sometimes I feel like the left hand in this practice does not know what the right hand is doing.
