This was a follow up appointment to labs taken. Dr. Mason went over the results and explained everything.

10/16/2023

I need a hip replacement and spinal surgery. I am sick and tired of being in pain. I understand the problems that can arise from controlled medication and I feel that what you have to go through to get relief is very hard. Also, my initial visit was for what turned out to be depression and anxiety five visits later was dismissed and there was nothing wrong with me! I kept going back to him almost three times a week until he reilazed I was serious! I was dizzy and felt like I was dying. finally He gave me medication and on the first day I was better. I was really angry at first that he wasn't taking me serious enough until I was persistant with my visits.

10/15/2023

First visit, will have more after future visits

10/10/2023

Not much more to add. Great doctor and staff. Love the portal for access to my personal health information and doctor Mason is always on top of things communicating my updates.

10/09/2023

Had filled out the survey data form online, and reception mandated I had to fill it out manually on paper. Apparently this is their reception "norm", but the data was digitally available to the doctor, as expected. This is a waste of time and natural resources.

New to Idaho - very lucky in my choice of dr.!! *Dr. Mason was very thorough & took time to explain everything. Best dr. visit in a long time.

05/25/2022

The appointment centered around a maintenance RX for an opioid. I have a back problem and am expecting surgery in about 2 months. He was concerned about my being on them for a long period of time (at least 3 years). I told him I could not function without them. He asked me to try other methods, which I did. Tylenol does nothing! I am [age] and if addicted to this lesser opioid, so what! I need to move. We agreed to try one [medication] in the AM and [medication] at noon and when I go to bed. Have not told him of the [medication] not working yet. Is he protecting his status with you?

*Dr. Mason is the best dr. I ever had - excellent listener, patient & kind. Took the time to researched my meds & supplements to help find the cause of my ongoing stomach problem. Changed one Rx & had me stop taking two of my supplements which took care of the problems.

04/18/2022

03/22/2022

Very good.

03/22/2022

Pleasant and productive. I was happy with this visit and it was my first time there.

03/21/2022

Dr and nurses are great

03/21/2022

Very professional and care about me as a patient.

03/21/2022

It took 4 attempts to contact to get a prescription. That is ridiculous. How to get their attention? I have no idea. I have delivered printed messages to the office, called in with a 25 minute wait time and send messages via MyChart. It took me calling into the patient line to get any response at all. Does the office staff stop all communication to the doctor or does the doctor not respond? I moved from Primary Health because they kept replacing my doctor with some newbie that was dismissive and could care less. My neighbors thought Dr. Mason at least listened, but now I think he is no better. Why should it takes weeks to get a response from him?

03/21/2022

I am a new resident to Star, Idaho. I had a very good first experience meeting Dr. Mason and staff. I am very happy to have found this Dr. And staff

Just relocated to Idaho. *Dr. Mason became my primary. This was our first exam. He was extremely attentive to my health needs and medications. We made some modifications and set up follow up care. Extremely pleased.

It was very efficient, clean & the procedure was fairly pain-free (except for shots in big toe)!
