    About our process

    Dr Morehead has always shown knowledge and concern.
    May 17, 2025
    I have been a patient of Dr. Morehead for many years. During the recent video visit I felt Dr. Morehead could have given me a few details concerning the options, risks, and/or benefits of seeking vascular surgery because of my condition, & my concerns. She was extremely brief with her responses during our recent Zoom Meeting and left me with a "not so good feeling" at the conclusion of the visit. -- Perhaps it was just not a good day for her. She did say she was working from home that day.

    Too bad you can't clone her as the model caretaker
    May 13, 2025
    She is amazing. Both the resident and the physician were amazing in listening to my concerns and answering all my questions. They even offered for me to contact then directly on MyChart which they respond to super quickly.

    Dr Morehead is a fabulous, caring, intelligent physician. She has made a tremendous difference in my health from believing I would not be able to resume normal life to healing and thriving. Anyone who is her patient or student is very blessed.

    Dr. Morehead is the best! She is always on top of things. You message her and she promptly replies even on weekends! Amazing doctor with such dedication. I feel very fortunate to have her my Rheumatologist!

    Provider showed a high level of care and concern about changes since last visit and was very concerned that things had gotten worse for me with increased pain and decreased ability to use hands and feet. Offered different medication which may be more appropriate to handle pain.
    Jan 18, 2025
    Dr. Morehead listened to my questions and addressed all my concerns which I very much appreciate. I also appreciate the time spent discussing my conditions and didn't feel rushed. I highly recommend the Dr. Morehead and the clinic.

    Dec 21, 2024
    Dr.Morehead is an amazing care provider. I never had such a caring physician. It is very easy to get in touch and she promptly replies with advice. I cannot tell you how lucky I am to have her as my Rheumatologist and I don't have words to say how an exceptional Provider that she is.

    Dr Morehead is always available in MyChart. Very helpful always
    Dec 05, 2024
    Dr. Morehead takes the time to treat "me" rather than just my psoriatic arthritis. I believe that this holistic approach results in better outcomes.

    Excellent. Dr M is very responsive, caring, smart and helpful.
    Oct 19, 2024
    Dr Morehead is the very epitome of the consummate medical professional. She listens, makes sure I'm always involved and informed in my care decisions, and operates with compassion. I couldn't be happier with my care under her supervision.
    Oct 18, 2024
    Wish my doctor will be concerned about my symptoms and be patient understanding . There was no discussions about next steps . Seeing the doctor talk about treatments and problems was more fast compared to waiting to called by a medical assistant. Very hard for patients as well who travel a long way to meet a doctor who won't help.
    Oct 14, 2024
    Very good Dr. And a very nice person
    Oct 13, 2024
    Dr. Morehead is always friendly, patient, and thorough. She has been my rheumatologist for rheumatoid arthritis for a number of years. She takes time to answer all my questions on my "Concern List" during the visit, and I appreciate her professionalism and care.
    Oct 06, 2024
    Dr. Morehead has treated me since about 2008. Always caring, easy to communicate with.
    Oct 04, 2024
    Dr Moorhead is a great provider & always available.
    Sep 20, 2024
    I appreciated that she made the effort to get me in sooner than the next available appointment to discuss next steps in my care. I also appreciated that she did not rush me and took her time to really address I'll of my concerns. I liked that she validated me and made sure that she understood where I was coming from with my questions and concerns. The only feedback I have is to more throughly explain the thought processes around why certain treatment options are proposed without having the patient prompt those explanations first. That way, the patient will feel more empowered regarding what options they should choose to help further their treatment.
    Sep 17, 2024
    Dr. Morehead has been extremely effective in helping me through a very difficult time and condition.I am very grateful to her and her staff for their expertise.

    Aug 28, 2024
    Doctor doesn't really explain the risks and benefits of the treatment plan for me.
    Aug 10, 2024
    Dr. Morehead has always had my health in my best interest. She listens and makes adjustments when needed. Her and her team have been great to work with
    Jul 16, 2024
    The provider spoke more to her medical assistant than to me. She spent about 10-15 min with me, which after waiting so long to be seen felt quite short. She spent part of that time explaining what the immune system is and how it works using analogy, which felt a bit condescending.
    Jul 05, 2024
    The physician was very knowledgeable and was only concerned about me. She was never distracted by anything, I felt very comfortable speaking with her.
    Jun 17, 2024
    Dr. Morehead is a good care provider. She is a person of few words, but steers me in the right direction for my rheumatoid problems. I have always appreciated her advice and help.
    Jun 07, 2024
    I appreciated that she asked me if I had any questions after going through what she thinks will be best to treat my issue however a more thorough explanation of the benefits and risks of the medication she prescribed would've been nice. Also, I would've like a more through examination in regards to lifestyle/diet decisions that may have led to my issue.
    May 26, 2024

    Dr Morehead and Fellow Dr Tao were tremendous! Caring, professional, clear communicators and gave me confidence that treatment going forward would have a great outcome.
    Dec 20, 2023
    The care provider seems to be in a hurry all the time doesn't really explain your medical issues or your concerns. The care provider just gives you short answers.
    Dec 18, 2023
    Discussed new problems and she suggested modifying medication and getting PT evaluation I agreed
    Nov 20, 2023
