I received a recommendation for another UH physician and attempted to schedule with them. When I saw the notification that I was booked with Dr. Harwell, I was initially disappointed. After the visit, I could not be more grateful to have met Dr. Harwell. She was so compassionate and clearly loves her job. I am so glad that Dr. Harwell is now my physician.

Provider was very warm and attentative. Me being a new patient, I was pleasantly surprised that she was current on what was going on with my visits with other Providers prior to my visit with her. She took time to address current concerns and to make sure I had follow up visits. The visit was very refreshing and the Provider made me feel that she genuinely cared.
