A Boutique Approach

Our goal is to empower you with an understanding of your condition and treatment plan. From the moment you make your first appointment until the completion of your care you and your experience are the focus of our entire staff.

Dr. Harlan believes that in modern medicine the physician-patient relationship has taken the back seat. When you have an appointment to see Dr. Harlan you will see.....Dr. Harlan! Whether it is your first visit to the practice, post-operative visit, or any other visit you will see Dr. Harlan, not a PA or Nurse Practitioner, or other physician extender. Dr. Harlan covers his patients 24/7 365 days per year so even after hours it will be Dr. Harlan directing your care.
