I was recommended to Dr. Ure from a friend. He was seeing patients that did not have insurance. I have seen him for the past several months, and he has helped me loose weight, and helped me to get off of blood pressure medicine. He is easy to talk with, the atmosphere is relaxed, and he takes the time to listen to you. He came up with up with a plan to help me with my medical needs. I highly recommend Dr. Ure as a physician.

Dr. Ure is the epitome of a country doctor. He is a no nonsense doctor with a great personality. He does not hesitate there is nothing wrong with you. Perhaps I am feeling sorry for myself, or just having a bad day. He will tell me "go take a walk instead of giving me a pill." More often than not he is correct.
- Shanda
Dr.Ure is a caring doctor. He spends time dealing with medical problems. You do not feel as though time is rushed. I do not feel like I am just another number. He always greets you with a smile and welcomes you to the clinic. In conclusion, in my opinion he is a remarkable man and a wonderful doctor.
- Jane
I have been to numerous doctors in my lifetime. Dr. Ure has helped me tremendously. I am not sure if I would have survived if it had not been for him. He will go out of his way to meet your health needs. When other doctors refused to care for me, he gave me the medication and care that I needed.
- George
If you are interested in a doctor that will listen to you, and help you to get healthier, you will not find a better doctor than Dr. Ure. He takes time with you, answers the phone, and serves me with respect and concern. He takes time to find out what is wrong with you and does not just hand me some pills and send me out the door.
