How likely are you to recommend Dr. Lupton?
Dr. Lupton took care of my mother years ago when he was in Granite Falls. We were very upset when he moved and didn't take individual patients anymore. He was always professional and gave my mother 100% of his attention when she saw him. He always took his time and didn't rush her through as many if the other physicians did. Now he's back taking patients and we are elated! After going to other pulmonary specialists, it makes us appreciate a great physician as Dr. Lupton.
