I've been going to Dr Michelle Paulsen since I moved to Virginia 7 years ago. I've always found her to be very thorough with her examinations. If a condition requires follow up with a specialist, the office is very proactive with getting that set up for you. I've seen other reviews where folks talk about how rude the staff is, and I have never once felt like I was treated rudely by anybody in that office. I would definitely recommend Tidewater Family Medical to anyone looking for a doctor.

I was a patient of Dr.Paulsen for many years. She was okay for the most basic of services such as annual check-up,vaccines and renewing prescriptions twice a year.If you needed anything more than basic care you would be sent to a specialist.I was told that older patients are too complicated.As time went on she became more rude and sarcastic.She often seemed rushed and unprepared.This practice is run like a small family business and not a very happy place. I have found that their many better choices for healthcare.Beware of o... read more

If you are looking for caring, compassionate, and comprehensive, look no further. Very clinical oriented, explains things, and cares about her patients. Highly recommend.

We have been going to Dr Michelle for quite a few years now and we love her. It is truly a Family Doctor's office. Most of her family works at the office in different capacities. Dr Michelle is so through and takes such good care of us. We are in our upper 70's now and she sees us every 4 months to keep us in good health..she caught a murmur in his heart and it sounded leaky. It turned out to be a leaky valve and at the catheterization, they found blocked arteries. After surgery the Dr told me that my husband had a quadruple... read more

I have been going to Dr Paulsen for 6 years since we moved to Va. She is efficient & her focus is preventive health. She willingly listens & allows my input into my care. I highly recommend her. I never have waited more than 10 min for her.

NOW I understand what someone else wrote about strange office practices! If you don’t mind never being able to have phone contact with the doc or a competent nurse, never having any questions answered or phone calls returned, not even a cursory discussion about normal blood results unless you return for another visit, then this doc’s for you. This office places the doctor/patient relationship at the bottom of their priorities. I wasn’t expecting it. Won’t return.

Back office staff horrible. $90 shot here, only $7.91 at Walmart. Be careful of everything they ask to do and go back a month later after research. Great Dr. but I have learned not to trust her or the office. How can you have a Dr. you don't trust? My second Dr. in 50 years. I have to fire her.

I originally started seeing Dr. Paulsen because of my elderly dad. She was and is amazing. She took care of him and me with loving care. She keeps me on my toes with her thoroughness in making sure I am up to date with the many other specialists I see. She is a Godsend. The office staff which is family for the most part and has always been friendly. They are strict with their procedures, but will work with you. It is great to have one doctor that takes care of you.
