I love Dr Amber Norris and I now have my whole family seeing her. Wish she was here all the time.

We are new to the state of Arkansas, & while I wasn't prepared for the length of time it's taken to get a new patient appointment with any of the UAMS clinics, I was thankful that family practice had a shorter wait than specialty clinics where 1st available new patient appointments aren't until October or November. This was my 1st meeting with Dr Norris, and I love, love, love her. The conversation definitely went both ways. I have a lengthy, unique, and complicated medical history and provided her with at least 2 dozen pages of information which is impossible to digest in one sitting. She expressed her eagerness to be my PCM and asked me to be patient with her while she took time to go over everything that she was given, and I think that was a reasonable request. While she looks forward to the rare opportunity of treating someone like me and all that she will learn that cannot be taught in the classroom, I look forward to having her as my PCM because she didn't claim to know everything. She took me seriously, listened to me, and came up with an initial game plan, and she backed it up with action because, in less than 24 hours, I received calls to schedule diagnostic testing and appointments with various specialists and know that more will be coming my way later this week.

Right now, I'm worried about my sleeping. I don't sleep too. Well, other than that whether my new meds are going to do it or not, but as far as that I thank you

This was my first visit and I was a little nervous at first, but the front desk staff was very helpful and really made me feel welcomed. They made me feel as though I've been a patient for years! The great service carried over into the nurse who also welcomed me with open arms and was asked in depth questions in order to build my chart. The Doctor was Amazing and was glad I chose this particular clinic. She was very thorough and things I may not have thought about, the probing questions led her to pinpoint my care plan. There was one particular part of the visit that I wasn't too thrilled about. I had to get my blood drawn for lab and the lab tech didn't great me and really didn't say much. I advised her I had small veins...with little to no response she started the prep to draw my lab. The initial stick was painful and my non-verbal reaction showed. However she never acknowledged me being in pain. While the needle was in my arm she began to move it around ....even more painful and uncomfortable. I just told her to stick my in my hand. That was even painful....To the point where it was painful to touch even the day after. Again the Lab tech never acknowledged that I was in pain and just said "you can check out at the front desk" that was it...S I sort of felt "dismissed". BUT....checking out at the front desk restored the comfort of care. The front desk was patient and advised me of my after care expectations and scheduling of next appointment. So based on the three great encounters...it outweighed the not so great encounter. Therefore I will continue my care with this clinic.
