Excellent visit and care, I was having an issue with an acute medical problem, when I called to be seen, Dr. West and his office were accommodating and fit me in immediately and assisted with my issue. He was timely, pleasant and answered all my medical questions thoroughly and with great knowledge. I am very please with Dr. West and his office's care!

Dr. West is everything I was looking for when my doctor at BR Clinic retired several years ago and I had to switch. He was my Mother's doctor from his first days at BR Clinic and he and Trudy were so kind and helpful with my Mom. I find him very thorough and gives you suggestions and options. He really listens to you. He is proactive in treatments, but not overly aggressive with over prescribing, which I like. He has a kind and gentle manner and never makes you feel rushed. Trudy and Chevez are both wonderful and respond quickly to your calls/messages. I highly recommend Dr. West and staff!

Very likely that we would recommend Dr. West, for we have already done so. He is very prompt which is one thing we love about him when we compare him to our cardiologist. You must show your patients that you care about them waiting to be seen. He is considerate, knowledgeable, and kind. We can trust what he instructs us to do in regards to our health, which brings about a level of comfort unimaginable. We feel blessed to have a doctor of his caliber.
