Coming into the office I was impressed with the decor, the waiting room is very cozy and accommodating. They also offer refreshments. I was greeted with a smile and promptly checked in. Every step of the appointment was professionShow moreal and everything was explained thoroughly. I really liked that I was able to ask questions and get clear feedback on what was best for me. It’s important to feel heard by your doctors/nurses/care technicians and this first visit was an indication that I am in great hands.
Kara and her team at the Decatur Howard Center are incredible! From the moment you walk in, everyone is super friendly and makes you feel like you’re walking in the doors of a friend’s house. The doctors and staff really take theiShow morer time, explaining everything and making sure you understand all your options. You can tell they genuinely care. I couldn’t recommend Kara, her team, and this location enough!

Everyone in the practice from the receptionist to the practitioners were great! Very kind and positive people. The mini snack bar in the waiting room was very much appreciated
This was my first visit and I loved it. My nurse practitioner Kara was kind, knowledgeable, and showed concern and care for me as a patient. She made sure to ask me questions and that any my health needs were addressed. Thank you!
Long wait but it was expected before coming so that wasn’t an issue. In conclusion, the experience was so great I loved it. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable, gentle and caring.
Best doctor visit I've had in a long time. Everyone was nice and friendly from the moment i walked in the door! From the receptionist down to the dr. Clean exam rooms, complimentary refreshments and overall a great experience.
My first appointment was such a great experience. No rush and the staff listened to my concerns. The staff and NP was very professional. The atmosphere was nice and clean.
The nurses and dr were very kind and professional. I was heard and listened to. They also explained everything to me very clearly. They made me feel like I matter.
Ms. Chestnut was very warm, welcoming, and professional. She made the whole appointment quick and easy. I've already recommended Howard Center to my friends.
She listened to my concerns and gave realistic solutions.
She’s the sweetest & always takes time to address all questions & concerns. Everyone with the Howard Center, particularly at this location, is wonderful.
Ms.Katherine was very sweet and listened to my concerns and I never felt rushed when she answered my questions. I would recommend the Howard Center to anyone female needing medical attention and check up of any issues.
I have never loved going to the doctor until I went to The Howard Center in Covington, GA. The ambience makes you feel like you’re at the spa. The staff from the front desk to the medical staff make you feel like family. Everyone was warm and friendly and inviting. I would definitely recommend The Howard Center to anyone.
Kind, knowledgeable, and safe.
I felt like I was heard in my visit, and there was no communication that was over my head.
