Cotton D. Feray, M.D. & Lance M. Feray, D.O.

I believe that in life there are probably four or five certain character defining moments.....flashes in time that involve decisions which will reflect the exact nature of a person’s soul. The choices that a person makes in that moment reflect the person’s authentic self.

I’d been known for years as the outgoing redhead and always thought my red hair was my best feature. So I was quite upset in the fall of 2005 to learn I would lose my hair due to chemotherapy. I worried about losing my identity and not being attractive to my husband.
I’d always known that Dr. Cotton was intuitive, a great listener and full of compassion toward his patients. He really has a knack for putting himself in the patient’s shoes! But I really realized the depth of his character when he came home one afternoon with a BALD HEAD. He had shaved his head to support me in my fight against cancer! And he kept shaving it until MY hair started coming back! His wonderful supporting gesture touched my heart beyond anything else he’d ever done for me in our 39 years together. He is truly the most compassionate person I have ever known.

My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Cotton for many years. We like his common sense approach in our treatment. He is very thorough.

My children are ages 10, 8 and 6mo. Dr. Lance has taken care of the youngest since birth and the older two since he came in 1998. I can always get an appointment on short notice when they are ill. He has seen us through many ear infections, fevers, rashes and respiratory infections as well as routine immunizations and well-child checks. A family man himself, he is gentle and obviously loves kids. He is very warm toward the children and they love to see him. When one of my daughters required hospitalization, he listened and was calm, conservative and VERY REASSURING. He treated my daughter as if she was his own.

Dr. Lance is the most caring doctor I’ve ever had.

We see N.P. Anne and appreciate the time she takes to listen to us. There are many friendly (employee) faces in Dr. Feray’s office. We feel like we are ‘friends”. We like how we never have to wait too long when we have an appointment. And we are always able to get ‘worked in’ when we are sick.
