Dr. Patterson and her MA are the best!
April 06, 2026
I was very impressed with the doctor and also the follow-up call from Stacy. That really gave me a lot of faith in the whole system. Stacy answered all sorts of questions for me and we still have, you know, an ongoing conversation if we need it. So I was very impressed. Thank you.

Overall a fine experience just a little miscommunication from my last appointment but mistakes happen. there where no serious issues anyways... they took me seriously when I discussed my medication switch being potentially addictive and allowed me to switch to something im more comfortable taking. Overall great staff and listened to my views and opinions and clarified the plan and conversation perfectly.

I came in for a Medicare wellness visit and the Medicare wellness visit does not allow a an actual physical so it was disappointing in that respect. I think that's all I'm gonna write. Because

The staff are always exceedingly pleasant, prompt, and attentive from the check-in desk to the check-out area. This visit was no different. I, of course, cannot sing Dr. Patterson's praises enough. I always feel seen and heard when I visit her, in a way I have not been with doctors from previous PCP offices. I have never met a staff member at AFM who I have disliked in any way, and always walk away feeling like I have an actionable plan in place for whatever issues I brought up. I feel taken seriously here, and that means so much to me. Really appreciate all that this office/provider have done to care for me.

December 19, 2025
The doctor was extremely rude . So when I was getting ready to leave I asked her if that was it that's when she said to me that it doesn't matter what I say to you in a sarcastic way that you're just going to do what you want and that refuse too do certain tests witch I didn't refuse any of the tests that she wants me to have, so I said to her yes go a head and schedule the tests that I needed and blood work to but she was still very sarcastic about the whole situation of my physical that day.
December 19, 2025

Kristin is a fantastic director and person! She takes the time to answer all of my questions especially involving my cancer diagnosis.

Augusta Family Medicine's staff, from the Customer Service Representative to the Medical Assistant to the Doctors, have all been prompt and helpful whenever we have had questions or needed an appointment. They are very knowledgeable and personable and put me at ease. I would highly recommend the practice. Thank you,
October 07, 2025
They were friendly somewhat but did t feel like my concerned were address. Just always seems like they ask correct questions and want you to leave.

Kristin Patterson DO made the removal of Mole off my collar bone area easy! I am very fortunate to her as my Primary doctor @ Augusta Family Medicine.

Dr. Patterson was great. She explained things very thoroughly.
September 12, 2025
It was a good health wellness care visit
September 12, 2025
My previous interactions with Dr. Patterson were abrupt and left me feeling like she did not care about my issues but instead wanted to pass me on to someone else. This most recent visit was totally different - she was very personable and listened to me and I felt like she heard my concerns and would work with me to see them addressed. I am glad to see this change.
September 08, 2025
kristin patterson is terrific!
September 03, 2025
New patient. Really appreciated the professionalism and friendliness of the staff. Took a while to get an appointment, but I blame myself for not having a regular pcp. Great to have the peace of mind I can turn to someone with medical questions and start becoming more proactive with monitoring my health.
August 29, 2025
Dr. Patterson and her staff were excellent. Thank you.
August 26, 2025
I've had many different experiences at this primary care office. Some not so great, this last visit... minus the being told they have another patient to see so we need to wrap it up was not bad. This physician appeared very engaged in the well-being and care of my current situation.
August 26, 2025
Thank you so much for the ongoing great care!!!
August 26, 2025
It was awesome to go to our first appointment being a new patient, have check in smooth, nurse to take us right on time, and then to have the Dr minutes in the room after nurse left. This is a huge praise to this office. Look forward to being seen as a regular patient in this office.
August 25, 2025
Dr Patterson was mean. She acted like she didnt care about me or my health. She would not listen to me.
August 25, 2025

Dr. Patterson was extremely efficient and very, very outstanding. Very pleased with her.
August 05, 2025
Questions were answered issues were discussed openly both medical and other related issues. I feel Dr Patterson and I are partners in my overall health care.
August 05, 2025
I've been a patient for number of years and have always been satisfied with staff and Physicians.
August 01, 2025
Dr Patterson was very thorough with her questions and relaying information about weight loss procedures i was interested in.
July 30, 2025
Dr Patterson is amazing!
July 25, 2025
They didn't know my health history because the previous doctor never transferred records, so that wasn't their fault. I did have to wait one year to get a new patient appointment though. My first impression of the staff was a good one.
July 23, 2025
Every time I visit, I am treated so well by everyone from the front desk staff to the nurses to the doctors. They are on time, prompt, and give me all the attention I require. I never feel rushed, or as if I'm being 'blown off' because they need to see other patients. I have never had to wait more than 5 minutes in between my 'check in' nurse and seeing the doctor. Dr. Patterson in particular has treated me so well. In a world where, as a woman, I have often had my concerns dismissed and my voice shut down by medical professionals, Dr. Patterson makes me feel heard and seen. I have told family and friends to switch to her and this practice because of the excellent care I receive EVERY TIME. Please take my heartfelt gratitude and respect.
July 23, 2025
The entire experience was positive. I would recommend AFM and Dr Patterson to anyone.
July 22, 2025
Professional, friendly, helpful visit.
July 14, 2025
Be more truthful about what is going on behind the scenes. Be truthful about letters that are sent to your office about my medication and being referred to as Polypharmcy. The so called nurse that contacted my doctors has never met me,or examined me. She is talking out her backside. It is totally unethical to ask my PCP to talk about the meds they prescribe to me without my permission. I hope this mater is cleared up quickly and not happen again in the future. If this continues to be a problem I have no problem looking into legal advice.
July 14, 2025
The doctor was nice enough. Professional. Seemed to be going through the motions
July 07, 2025
After only checking my vitals and listening to my lungs and heart. And offering a couple vaccines I was sent on my way. She just went through the motions for billable hours. This was a joke and has me feeling like I need to find a different doctor's office. I have never had a medical professional be so disinterested in my health.
June 30, 2025
It was a great experience for my first visit
June 30, 2025
Very short visit. Feeling rushed.Not all my health concerns were discussed. Leaving confused whether I needed a yearly physical after a first initial appointment.
June 30, 2025
Dr Patterson was welcoming and made my visit very pleasant.
June 20, 2025
At my visit, my second visit with Kristin, she was, as the first time, dismissive of many of my concerns. She put down any of my questions, and I would prefer to have a different primary care in future.
