Most professional and organized medical office I have visited in years. Dr. Newkirk and his staff explained everything in easy-to-understand language. Very little wait time before I was seen. Knowledgeable doctor and assistants.
Everyone at Coastal does a fantastic job. Very kind and considerate.
An absolutely outstanding doctor! From the moment I walked into the office, I felt welcomed, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. Not only is Dr. Newkirk extremely knowledgeable and professional, but also compassionate, attentive, and takes the time to listen and explain everything.
