Dr. Hamel is not only an excellent physician, she is a remarkable human being. She is truly an asset to health care in Malone. She has treated me with respect, concern and compassion since my first visit.
Dr. Hamel was wonderful. Friendly, caring, took time to listen, explained things clearly.
First time meeting her. She was great!!
Dr. Hamel is a very positive addition to AHMC. She is extremely knowledgeable, kind, caring and gave me options for treatment of my current problem. After in depth discussion, we arrived at a plan.
I was extremely happy with my appointment. Dr. Hamel was very kind and helpful.
My visit with Dr.Hamel was amazing. She was very attentive, person centered, allowed me to feel in control of the decisions I want to make regarding my body, and answered every question I had with detailed explanations and information. She was so kind and made me feel heard, understood and validated which is unfortunately not an experience I've had frequently with other healthcare providers/establishments. I was beyond impressed with her professionalism and the entirety of the experience I had with her.
Dr. Hamel has been my OBGYN since 1996, when I saw her to get a second opinion. She so impressed me I asked if she would take me as a patient. Over the years, she has provided me with excellent care. Smart, skilled, kind, she knows her patient. She listens intently, considers your concerns & respects your decisions. She works with you to achieve the best health outcomes for you specifically. Truly she practices both the science & art of medicine.
Dr Hamel is a great doctor. She's smart, explains procedures and results very well and is very personable. I'm glad I was referred to her.
Dr. Hamel is by far the very best, very comfortable talking with her about issues.
Dr. Hamel is a fantastic dr. I would trust her with anything. She's thoughtful and caring. Very intelligent & experienced.
