Patient Rating
Patients consistently praise Dr. Hatton for attentive, compassionate care—noting that he listens closely, explains conditions and plans clearly, and makes them comfortable; several comments also commend Jennalyn and the broader care team. Reviewers credit him with accurate diagnosis, practical management recommendations, and helping improve function and quality of life. Some feedback raises administrative concerns: multiple patients reported disorganized follow‑through from clinical staff (delayed orders/prescriptions/faxes), scheduling delays or long waits, and feeling overwhelmed or unclear about certain instructions such as oxygen settings. Overall the clinical skill and bedside manner are highly regarded, with room to improve clinic communication and operational follow-up.
Generated via Patient Reviews
The patient rating score is an average of all responses on our patient experience survey. The rating averages scores for all questions about care from our providers. The scale on which responses are measured is 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
Patient comments are gathered from our patient experience survey and displayed in their entirety. For the convenience of our visitors, some patient comments have been translated from their original language into English while preserving their original meaning as accurately as possible. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.

Dr Hatton is very sympathetic to all my concerns about staying physically active......even at my age.

Dr. Hatton was awesome. I am so thankful I could have an appointment with him. He was kind and warm, and I could tell he was very interested in visiting with me and determining how they could best help me. He even went and got some warm blankets for my hands when I had a Raynaud's episode during the visit. I really appreciate his kindness and that he made certain that I was comfortable during my visit with him. I would be happy to see him again, anytime.
Excellent care
