Dr Harlon was very attentive during the appointment and answered all my questions and provided clear explanations during the appointment. Unfortunately his office is 40 minutes from my house so I would try to schedule future appointments with my current OB and hope she has availability.

Dr. Harlan is an amazing physician. He always takes the time to speak to me on a personal, never rushed, level and go above and beyond to answer any questions I have. There are not enough characters in this box for me to sing his praises. I don't have one other physician like him. He's very genuine and it's rare to find care like he provides.

Dr. Richard Harlan is a wonderful physician and that is why I continue to come to him. His office is a little farther for me to get to, but so worth it. He is kind, caring, and he really listened when I explained that I was battling cancer.

This was my first visit with Dr. Harlan. He and his staff are amazing! He treated me with compassion, A listening ear and great care! He repeatedly asked me if I had any questions and encouraged me to ask them if they should come up later. I never felt rushed and was completely at ease, Feeling confident that he would help me to find answers and the best solution to take care of my need and Help me to get back to my normal, active self as quickly as possible. He definitely goes the extra step to meet his patient's need. I am so thankful I found this gynecologist!
