This is by far the best practice I have ever been at. Kaitlin was amazing and I have been very happy with April in her absence. The reception desk is super nice and nurses are amazing. I have recommended this practice to everyone.

Dr. Frater was able to understand my symptoms and refer me quickly for additional tests. She communicated the results quickly with my specialist who was then able to schedule an important surgery. If Dr Frater was not so attentive, I would not have been able to get the timely care that was needed. Thank you.

Dr Frater is a very compassionate and caring doctor. I asked if I could switch to her as my primary. Dr Frater indicated she is in Fuquay Varina which is too far for me to travel. I would highly recommend Dr Frater to my friends.
