Great Staff
I felt that I was primary in his care.
Dr. Hatchell thoroughly knows my complicated history and explains in a way that is easily understood and navigable for the average person. I appreciate the care I receive at Shiland Family Medicine and with Dr. Hatchell.
Dr Hatchell is excellent
The providers here always act rush and assume they know what I am going to say especially Dr. Hatchell.
Dr Hatchel is very thorough and explains everything he does. Great Doctor!
Effective and efficient.
Dr. Hatchell reviews previous appointment info with the current assessment. He encourages questions, makes observations and expresses guidelines for good health. Fortunately, I am in good health! But I truly value Dr. Hatchell's advice!
It is increasingly apparent that the insurance companies are getting in between my doctor and me as a patient. I will enumerate two such instances. First I have asked that I be able to take our blood survey days before our office visit so that my doctor and I can discuss live time the results of said tests. I am told that we cannot do this as it is against insurance and medical policy. My doctor is open to said practices however there are always roadblocks to this occurring. Secondly I am told that due to my age I am NOT eligible for certain tests such as Cologard. Thankfully I am in excellent health but one of the main contributors to my success is being able to position myself in a proactive stance. This is clearly a roadblock to my overall success as I age. The adage of "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" more than applies and this defies any reasonable logic one could apply. I could go on however these two examples should more than demonstrate my opinion.
Great office.
