Best Doctor Maggy Awards Winner
A record-breaking 15,207 votes and the biggest Maggy Awards ever…and our amazing Doctor Mintzer walks away with her FOURTH Best Doctor award! Cary Magazine writes:
“Relationships matter. That’s the philosophy of four-time Maggy winner Dr. Melanie Mintzer, and her practice proves it, offering care for children, adults and seniors. Imagine: A sports physical for Susie, an updated vaccine for traveling Dad, and medication maintenance for Grandma, all under one roof. “Getting patients in, making them feel comfortable, is the really important thing,” Mintzer says. “It’s an honor to take care of them.” Mintzer decided at age 6 to become a family doctor like her dad, accompanying him on house calls. Now she has lifelong patients of her own.”
And to top it off, Generations Family Practice’s Doctor Justin Glodowski took second place!
Won’t you join us in congratulating them both! And a big thank you to all of our patients who took time to cast their votes. Your confidence in our care is overwhelming and appreciated!!
