Here's what they have to say

SO much better then going to the Dr's office

TruCare is amazing!! When I couldn't understand why 2 Dr's we're telling me 2 different opinions, Shemika boiled it down for me in simple terms and by taking the time and helping me figure out what was best for me really gave me strength. She listened, provided choices, was patient with my emotional outbursts and helped me thru a very tough time. All while I was in the comfort of my home. SO much better then going to the Dr's office and waiting forever! Thank you for giving me my peace back!

She will go far and beyond

Nurse Shemika helped me understand what the doctor was telling me, she reviewed my lab work and explained to me what I needed to do next, she was on the phone with me during my appointment so communication between myself and the health care provider was clear. As a result I was referred for follow up care compared to go about it alone. She will go far and beyond to assist you with your medical needs.

I am grateful for her dedication

I enjoyed the concern and consistency of Mrs. Mitchell while you are under her care. She takes time to answer questions with or without appointments. She is brilliant with respecting the HIPAA Law and respecting patient confidentiality. I like to call her Dr. NP she is the best at what she does. She recommends that you give her a copy of your most recent lab work in order to fulfill her job based on the patient individual needs. Be sure to include allergy test or disclose the information if you are aware of any. Shemika is the first person I call before reaching of to my primary physician, I am grateful for her dedication to her clients/patients and her work. Thank you so much !!!!!
