My normal PC could not see me. So the help line set me up with this video visit. The doctor was excellent! Very concerned about my condition and was able to figure out what was wrong with me. Put me on the right medication and now I'm starting to feel better! I want to thank her very much for her caring and kind advice!

Dr. Hemby is perfect for me. She shows genuine concern and takes time to explain each of my lab tests. I enjoy her sense of humor it puts me at ease.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/28/2025
I tell every single person I can about Dr. Hemby. Those that know me know how much anxiety I get from going to the doctor. Dr Hemby is so down to earth and makes me feel like seen and heard. I've never felt as comfortable with another doctor as I do with her.

I'll stay with Dr. Hemby as long as she stays there or in the area. I feel heard, valued, and cared about. I love that in every visit she asks me do I have any thing we need to discuss or explore. I just love her patient care.

Dr Hemby has reviewed blood test results and explained the anomalies. She answered my questions to my satisfaction, ordered a diagnostic procedure and renewed my prescriptions.

All was very good.

Great bedside manner. She put me at ease. It was very refreshing after the incident with the nurse. Also, I told her that was the first drs appointment that I have been to in recent years that actually discussed my labs with me. And asked if I had any questions

I'm very happy I chose Dr Hembly for my primary care physician, I just moved to the area and had to seek a new provider and over all I made a great choice, I would recommend Dr Hemby to all my friends and family.

Aa a 100% service connected Veteran information could easily receive "ALL" of my healthcare for free at the VA! The warmth that I've felt with every Emory employee I've had contact with is uunparalleled and thats why I continue to come to Emory.

Wasted time and not helpful. Dr arrived smiling, chatted about weekend. Her questions had already been answered by admitting attendant. My motto has always been 'when the attendant neglects their own self care, they can't do much to help me'. I think we both wasted our time, therefore will not schedule another appt.

I asked some questions about some health concerns & was basically told her job was just to get me in the system and to another provider, she did not show true interest/concern or concern about my health

She was very nice. She is not my doctor but if I needed a doctor I would definitely consider her
- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/22/2024
She was also 25/ 30 minutes late to the video call. The only thing discussed was me making an in person visit for my health. She listened and took notes. I do feel she was actively listening while taking notes. I seen there was a small discrepancy in the notes but nothing too serious.

I was recommended by a family friend, Nita Avery to Dr. Hemby and I will recommend Dr Hemby to family and friends. Dr. Hemby listened to my concerns and she gave answers and I'm really happy to hear that my concerns were solved. Thank you Dr. Hemby.

Nurse and Doctor were very helpful in arranging me as a comeback patient.
- 1 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/30/2024
I will never come back or recommend Emory based off of my visit with the doc
- 1 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/30/2024
Very matter of fact and dismissive. Even made a comment about how she was a chemist first in life but liked fire too much so she had to change and then went into medicine. Talked fondly of fire and "why would you ever want to put a beautiful fire out, especially when it's all glowing and pretty."Decided to increase the one medication she started two weeks ago, then lamented about the EMR, computer, technology, the "guided or recommended dosages it wants you to make", and generally complained about EVERYTHING.Not sure I will be returning to this clinic, and DEFINITELY NOT to this provider!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/24/2024
I do leave reviews, I checked her reviews and there was bad ones But not good enough complaints just being difficult patients. So far so good.
