Needs to spend more time with me
There's always room for improvement but I can't think of any for this practice
I thought that Dr. Marler and the staff in the offices have done an outstanding job as I'm a new patient. Also, I made a boo-boo and I pressed the wrong button on number one. It should have been four. Thank the office for their courtesy and they got me in so fast. It was astounding. Thank you so much for all of your kindness. I appreciate it. Bye.
Keep up the great work!

Everything was was excellent! Dr Marler is very thorough and goes over everything in detail. Very happy with my care and have upmost confidence in this provider
I was in for Lab work. Some of the resolutions numbers were concerning. I have sent Dr Marler a message asking a specific question about my prescriptions, I have not gotten a reply yet..
I cannot think of anything that would have improved my appointment with Dr. Marler. He is very thorough and considerate when I have questions or concerns about the things going on regarding my health.
Everyone is always so helpful and friendly here.
I waited almost a full year for my first appointment with doctor Marler. We relocated in march of 2025 so it would have been great if I could have gotten an appointment with Dr Marler sooner but as it turns out, I am very happy with the visit and think Dr Marler is an exceptional Dr. I am pleased with his performance and would recommend him to anyone. The check in was great and the nurse care was top notch.
Nothing. Dr marler listened to me and had read my note which included comments from my wife. He thanked me for her input and suggestions from her personal experience.
Everything was fine!
Keep doing what you're doing!
All areas were completely satisfactory.
You cannot improve on Dr. Marler's care - he is excellent

I was very well pleased with my visit with Dr Marler and I did not notice anything that I could ask to be improved on
Everything went well.
Almost perfect visit
Everything was great!
The nurse who attended to me took my BP manually after using machine. The machines you have in all Prisma facilities are always high and inaccurate.
Everything was fine and they don't have to change anything from what I can see
All good.
Dr. Marler is excellent!
Give you a fresh baked chocolate chip cookie when you leave.
My doctor is a great doctor
Everyone was pleasant. Great practice!
Dr. Marler answered all my questions and more. I am very pleased. Excellent treatment.
All good. Very pleased with Dr. Marler.
Nothing. Dr Marler & his nurse are awesome. They answered my questions throughly.
Able to see my doctor, PA or NP in a timely manner. I had to go to an urgent care center the first time to be treated for my respiratory condition. I have asthma and not getting a respiratory infection dealt with quickly is a real problem for me. Very disappointed that wasn't made to happen.
Keep up the good work
The staff is welcoming, caring, and helpful. Dr. Eric listens to your questions and is very thorough.
Asked me if I had questions or concerns, rather than me bringing my issues up.
I would suggest that every time I use a Prisma doctor or facility, you don't survey me afterwards. I've seen quite a few doctors and facilities and it's rather stressful, but I'm very happy with all my Prisma doctors.
