Jaime Z. (PA) and her Medical Assistant always on time and did an excellent job within 15 minutes of our 45 minutes appointment. Thank you for your care and we appreciate you both every time we came to change my husband's catheter. Keep up the great job.

Report
No waiting at all. I was processed efficiently by two most pleasant aids. Michael and I had a productive discussion about the procedure to improve urine flow and why it hasn't worked. I had hoped to see Dr Posey as he performed the operation and I haven't seen him since. But no complaints with Michael.

The entire staff at Alaska Urology is professional and courteous! There has never been a cancellation or delay, and I am always seen right away. Dr. Brown, especially, is kind in his approach, and always takes time to answer my questions and to work with me on a plan of care that I feel comfortable with. Thank you!

Alaska Urology Has provided first class service and treatment to me for the last two years. Dr Joshua Logan is a professional of the first accord with the ability to explain things both completely and in terms that are easily understood. I am convinced that he takes a personal interest in my treatment. He is a man of faith. I recommend him to all that need Alaska Urology's services.
