Hi Jeanine. My Dad has Diabetes and Celiac and he goes to Dr. Rhodes in Concord at Northeast Digestive. He has been very pleased with Dr. Rhodes.
Christy K. replied:
You might try Will Conner at Conner Family Clinic in Matthews. He's smart, trilingual, has an independent practice, volunteered numerous times in Haiti, thinks outside the box, and is relatively humble. I really like him. He runs the labs I need and offers valuable insight but lets me have a big say in how we manage the care of my mitochondrial disease.

I don't know how much they charge since I only pay a co-pay, but I've been seeing Dr. David Hall at Matthews Family Physicians in the Matthews Hospital for quite a few years.
