It was Gr8! Care team all nice and very friendly. The Dr. explained all med choices to us and was telling us about them in a way we could understand the side effects of each of them. Was very nice and informative for us. Would recommend him at Valley Professionals to any one who asks about a Mental Health!

Super happy with making Josh my new primary care physician. His PA, Bailey, is phenomenal. Everyone was nice and attentive. My son was unexpectedly with me and the staff was happy to help entertain him while I was with the NP for a few moments. He had a student NP in office while I was there and she was amazing.

NP Josh Childress actually listened to me and ordered an x-ray on my wrist. He took the time and cared. I didn't feel like a number. He referred me to B&J and I'm doing great now!! I'm glad he was taking new patients. I now have a new doctor!! ☺️
