Dr. Betsy English, MD

Dr English always gives me plenty of time and answers all my questions. I never feel rushed. She offers helpful information and suggestions. She makes me feel she cares about me as a person, not just a patient. I feel I truly have a partner on my wellness journey.

I have probably seen Dr English for thirty years and I trust her with my life. I have never had a provider that takes as much interest in me, many times texting me in My Chart on weekends when I have a question. She is the epitome of professionalism, but with a down to earth approach.

I am a patient of Dr. English and she is very bright and very thorough. She made a diagnosis that other doctors overlooked. My husband is a physician and he knows who is on the ball. He recommended Dr. English and she has been an excellent physician. I feel very fortunate to have her as my doctor as she is busy and is not always taking new patients. She has a solid nursing staff as well.

Dr English has been taking care of myself and several family members for years. She always takes time and listens very attentively to concerns and addresses any problems thoroughly. I have never felt rushed through like at many other doctors. She’s very trustworthy and gives honest advice and recommendations no matter if it’s what you want to hear or not. It’s what you need to hear. And done in a very tactful and respectful way. (I like that!) We need more doctors like this!

Care, that she truly does. Her care concerns are for your best interest. She can tell you best practice ways for taking care of yourself but if you aren't compliant it makes her job very hard and exasperating to say the least. She doesn't sugar coat it. We as patients have to learn to hold up to our share of responsibility in our own health care. Which I don't do so well and she holds me accountable. Thank you, Dr. English, for your high standards of care.

I too, found Dr. English rather smug & in my experience, she talks down to the patient. She bluntly shares one-size-fits-all solutions to problems that she assesses & isn't very happy if the patient asks too many questions. With me, she *missed* two major health problems that have since been diagnosed & misdiagnosed another condition. If you're perfectly healthy & just need an annual check up, she's okay. If you have more involved health conditions, please, look elsewhere. Her nurses are great.

I have always found Dr. English to be rather arrogant and not empathetic at all. She has gotten three diagnoses wrong over the past two years, so I am ready to try a new physician.

Dr English provided excellent medical care and genuine warm concern for my mother over the past almost 20 years. Dr English exemplifies what a medical doctor should be and rarely is in this modern managed cost world. I most highly recommend Dr English to anyone wanting superior medical care.

Dr English has been my primary care physician for 20 or more years. I trust her completely with all my various issues... I'm 64, and have the usual assortment of organ problems, skin and skeletal issues, the things that crop up when you lead an active modern life. Dr English also treats (or in some cases, treated) my spouse and my kids, again helping us weather the various crises life brings. She's terrifically human, intensely practical in her approach to medicine.

I am in the 65+ age category, have dealt with a number of doctors over the years and wouldn't trade Dr. English for any of them. Have the highest level of trusts in her decisions. She explains things well and answers your questions. Top notch.
