5.0 star star star star starI must say hands down,Microphone drop she is the “BEST� Neurologist I ever had.I must say furthermore her students the ones that I’ve seen are gonna be a force to reckon with the ones that paid attention. However Dr.Templer from the time you walk in she greets you she just kind hearted and gets to the meat and potatoes she asked about my Epilesy and was thorough She asked if any medical records it was a lot and that was the first visit I’ve been going for years now. Let’s not forget whenever it doesn’t matter If you have a seizure make sure you send it what happened through my chart and she will definitely get right back to you next day. Also she she tries to get you in depending on how bad seizure was and she monitors your medication very very well and your levels and you’re all around health and your day-to-day she’s just a all-around Neurologist especially dealing with epilepsy patient. Also she works with your primary so both of them can know what’s going on with you yeah definitely 10 stars if they have more she definitely would get them.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Templer provided exceptional care by explaining clearly her thoughts on my tumor and symptoms. She listened attentively and thoughtfully. She spent time asking thorough questions as to how I feel. She ended by ordering certain tests and explained why she was proceeding with a certain data-collection strategy. I recommend her wholeheartedly.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Templer was very kind. She took the time to listen & I was very talkative. My mom assisted me on the video chat & Dr. Templer welcomed her as well. When we were done I had a new prescription, an appointment, & explanations about the meds that I'm currently on & why they're making me feel the way I do.

Dr.Templer is the type of Neurologist/Doctor that everyone needs she goes above and beyond. She feels like family she's a genuine woman, handles everything right there so you can see it. Also if not your in constant contact MyChart when I have a seizure her team of nurses are excellent as well. They stay on It very detailed oriented. Dr. Templer will get to the root of Seizure and figure out a solution. She handles her business for me as her patient without me having to ask she does she just knows what I need. She's been a Blessing to me as her patient!

5.0 star star star star starDuring my life I have seen many doctors. I was an athlete in college and saw doctors all the time. My neurologist is the best doctor ever! She cares and goes above and beyond with her personal touch for my case. I feel so safe knowing I can turn to her with any problem I may have and get answers. More importantly she is true to her word! I am so lucky to have found her and be in her care!
