Meet Melissa

Never one to pass up an opportunity to travel, I have been fortunate to visit a number of amazing places, but nothing beats coming home. I was born and raised here, so after my time in nursing and medical school it only made sense to return home to care for patients in the town where I grew up. I also serve on the Medical Board to help ensure that great care is never far from home.

	September 2023 I have been seeing Dr. Purvis for a few years now. She has always showed concern, compassion and explained things to me. She has always provided me with anything needed for my health records and anything regarding my health in general. This year has been a rough one for me as I have had three surgeries this year. Gal bladder removal and two knee replacements. Dr. Purvis has been understanding and kind with all my concerns as I have had to navigate medical leave from work to take care of my health, disability case, and recovery from surgeries.
	September 2023 Dr Purvis listened to all my concerns.
	September 2023 Great
	September 2023 Dr Purvis is kind, compassionate and really listens to me when I express how I see my health care experience going. I feel in charge of my medical decisions with this provider and not as though I am being dictated to as is often the case in this experience.
	August 2023 Dr. Purvis placed a referral to an ENT for a follow up appointment and the contacted me the following day.
	August 2023 I love Dr. Purvis she listens to me & she genuinely cares about her patients and wants them to have the best health possible.
	August 2023 Dr. Purvis takes the time to listen and really seems to care about my health.
