How likely are you to recommend Dr. Howitt?
Comprehensive, thoughtful, professional physician. I was transferred to him four years ago, when previous doctor (at same facility) relocated. I consider myself very fortunate for that. He is respectful to all his patients; I can bring up sensitive, personal subjects and be met with absolute understanding and respect. He comes across (and you come to realize) that he's genuinely dedicated to his profession. I sometimes worry about having to find someone to replace him, should change occur. I am not sure what one review here has stated, about their own experience with his facility/staff, at all. Managing appointments, rescheduling things, courteousness, have always been consistent and professional.
