Family Practice in Encinitas, CA

“I was absolutely amazed at the time that Cole took with me to listen to all my various issues and I don’t know the name of the nurse who attended me, but she was excellent as well. I can’t rave enough about this place.”

“I went for my monthly visit and saw Joanne like always. I mentioned my heart seemed like it was pounding more than normal. I said I felt fine but she noticed a few differences in me. My face was reddish and my handwriting was messy (I fill out a form each time). Her gut was to give me an EKG and of course Dr Sexton said yes. Well, I was in aFib and needed to go to the Emergency Room. 2+ days later and I went home with my heart good (sinus rhythm) and no stroke. Joanne was thinking of my health and saved my life. I am so proud and thankful to Dr Sexton and Joanne for always having my back. The next appointment after my hospital stay was highly anticipated by me. I had written a thank you letter to Dr Sexton and Joanne but wanted to see my 'family' in person. Tears were shed and hugs were given. Encinitas Family Care is the perfect name of my Drs office. I am so happy to see Joanne every month. I look forward to going to EFC-JB”

“Had to go in for kidney stone and ended up there for 3 nights. Ugh. Had great care and a nice experience with Dr. Nelkin. Good disposition and he listens. I felt like I was in good, capable hands. No one likes to be admitted, but if you are, Scripps Encinitas is not a bad place to be.”
