Dr. Naomi Jane Cook, MD

Dr cook has been very kind and sensitive to my past bad experiences with the medical profession. She is very patient, considerate and you can tell she really cares.

Dr. Cook takes such good care of me as an individual. I am having trouble with my thyroid meds and she is willing to continue to tweek it until it is right for me. Being a Direct Primary Care model of practice helps with her flexibility with me. Love it!

Dr. Cook is an amazing doctor. She truly listens to what I have to say and is so patient, she is always available when I need her via phone, email or even an appointment the day of! I would recommend her to anyone and do!

I'm a truck driver, 30 years under my belt, a very unhealthy profession. I have seen more than I can remember, forgot even more, met more than a few bad hombres, and I am proud to say that Dr Cook is my primary care physician. I am a member of the Your Choice Direct Care in Brighton MI. Again, Doctor Cook is my primary care physician, and she is doing a bang up job. Dr Cook diagnosed and set me on the right path to recovery. What the other doctors, when I had insurance, who were to busy keeping up to date with all of the Obamacare regulations, totally missed my thyroid condition, Dr Cook DID NOT. She has done more for me health wise in a few weeks than those Obamacare doctors I used to have. She is very polite, no clue on those other reviews, and she has been nothing but professional and kind to myself and family. Trust me, I'm a truck driver, I know an attitude, I don't see that with Dr Cook. When I need to see her, I get an appointment, always the day I call. When I email her, I get a reply back the same day. The office staff, top notch. I need tests, bang, she is on it and I have yet to wait longer than two days for any off site diagnostic tests needed, including a biopsy. Pharmacy, it is in the office. If you even knew what I paid for my BP medication, due to my thyroid, you would fall over. Since becoming a patient of Dr Cook's, I am not only on my way to recovery from several years of bad doctoring with Insurance, but I have saved literally thousands upon thousands of dollars. Bravo to Dr Cook!

I have been a pt of Dr. Cooks for awhile now. She is extremely understanding and willing to spend the time to talk to you about your concerns. I love the fact I can email the office with any questions I have. When I was really sick she would check up on me to see how I was doing. Not many Doctors are like that and I also like that there is never a wait to get in.

I am a patient of Dr. Naomi Cook. I transferred to her from a geriatric practice with U of M that just didn't have time for me anymore. I went from feeling that I was getting basically no care to the assurance that I have all the care I need and more! Dr. Cook is in a new practice model called Direct Primary Care. She spends lots of time with me in our visits and just takes wonderful care of me! I highly recommend making Dr. Cook your doctor too!

I'm an older lady and she took the time to ensure what was being prescribed was the correct medicine to help. She was very kind and thorough.

She is very condescending and refuses to consider or examine anything other than what you mentioned when you scheduled the appointment. She asks you about your health history and then completely disregards it if she believes that she knows more about you than you do. I would reccomend going to any other doctor in this practice but her.

I was taken back by her curt almost military demeaner. She must have commented 3 times we were running over allotted time for a basic physical. Expressed no interest in me or an emergency visit this summer. Maybe it's me but I need a few people skills in a physician. Won't be returning. Dr Cook would better serve science behind a microscope. Treating people this way is a mental health hazard. Her office staff and assistants were wonderful.

Worst doctor ever, worst human being ever, if she is even human! Extremely rude and cold, doesn't even make eye contact. She misdiagnosed my pneumonia for a common cold and condescendingly insinuated that I was being a wimp. Sent me home telling me to take acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Next day, I ended up in ER where they ran tests and took a chest xray, clearly showing pneumonia and I had to take short term disability from work. When I asked her to fill out some paperwork, she snapped at me and asked why she had to do that. I explained to her that she, as my physician, was required to do so. Unbelieveable! She should be locked up!

This was my first time seeing this doctor. She obviously doesn't like older people, or maybe just older women (I am only in my 50's, btw). I told her I had painful arthritis in my neck, and she told me to take ibuprofen. I said, I am taking that but it's upsetting my stomach a lot. She said, it's okay, just take more. Then she refused to discuss anything else about my health because "it wasn't on the intake form." She cut me off when I was trying to talk, and acted like I was some kind of idiot throughout the visit. Honestly this was the worst doctor I have ever seen. I left her office feeling alienated and depressed--she didn't help with my problem, didn't ask anything (at all) about my overall health, and just seemed to want me to go away. I will never go back to her.

when she enter she was very rued she did not want to help me because ,I had asthma ,she should leave the profession ,work as warden or she lock herself up do not deal with sick people

I have been a patient of Dr. Cook's for a few years now and I have always been pleased with the amount of time she has spent with me during my appointments. I have always found her to be extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She has never made me feel rushed during an appointment or not listened to. I feel very comfortable as patient of Dr. Cook's.

The poorly managed office at the Ann Arbor Family Clinic is really one of the major issues. Dr Cook is OK, but not so up on the science behind the diagnoses - but that's not uncommon. It is just extremely frustrating to deal with appointments and to get and receive lab results. The labs are not ordered when they should be and the results are not posted.

One of the worst doctors I have ever seen, including harried ER docs and green interns/medical students encountered at teaching hospitals. Can't believe U of M let this "gem" get away from their staff (not). Saw her 3 times, never asked one personal question. Was extremely rude when I dared to bring up an issue that I forgot to tell the nurse about and griped "people wonder why doctors are always behind schedule!" . Incredible. IHA, you need to get rid of this woman, she is a blot on an otherwise good institution.

Very cold, she walked in with her laptop open and hardly looked up at me. Had no interest in establishing a report. I asked her more questions than she asked me. She mentioned that during a wellness visit it is only preventative care so we couldn't talk about any medical issues I might be having. That would have to be spoken about at a separate "medical"visit, where she basically eye rolled that this is all because of the insurance companies. If she really cared to put her patient first, you'd think she'd want to get a full medical history and see what's going on. I also didn't like how during a first visit, they had me change into a gown even before I met Dr. Cook, talk about a non-even playing field. I asked the nurse why that was necessary and she said "that's how Dr. Cook likes to do it". I should have known at that moment that it was going to be less about getting to know her new patient and more about just getting the visit done as quickly as possible. Even during a "preventative" visit, you'd think she'd ask me what I did for work, if I had kids, if I've had any recent weight loss/gain. Nothing. I would not recommend this doctor if you are looking to establish any kind of long term professional relationship with your physician. What a waste of time.

Worst doctor........ Do not waste your time and money....

Did not appreciate the cold, dismissive attitude she presented upon entering the exam room. Told me I couldn't talk about anything outside my wellness screening, or I would have to pay out of pocket, insurance wouldn't cover it. Stated things like "Nobody does research on women" as a reason for why pre-menopause is a mystery to her. I have had three appointments with her for various issues and was not impressed.

The office is great.

Dr. Pearsall is very knowledgeable, caring, honest, intelligent and warm. I have never felt as comfortable with a doctor as I do with her. The staff were very friendly and courteous.
