    Dr Scannell is the most compassionate and patient physician I¿ve ever been to! She really listens and hears what you¿re saying. I believe she truly cares about her patients. I have never felt rushed through a visit. She devotes her full attention to you when you¿re with her. She is so bright but always puts her diagnosis and guidance in terms that I can easily understand! I have and will continue to refer her to anyone who is looking for a new Dr.

    I have had a lot of doctors over my life span and dr Scannell is the top. I hesitate to say it though because I don¿t want the world to flock to her and squeeze me out of open appointments. She¿s brilliant, caring, and kind.
