  • "Dr. Putnam takes the time to hear you and what is going on. She is extremely knowledgeable, and calm, and takes the time to explain what could be going on. She takes a holistic approach to her treatment and is very compassionate. Could not recommend more!"

    - Jesse

  • "I have been seeing Dr. Putnam for a year and it has changed my quality of life! I had terrible sternum, neck and back pain for years. I thought I was going to be in pain for life. Going to Dr. Putnam was my last effort to figure out how to manage my pain and I am so glad I found her! Within a couple months of seeing her I noticed a difference and now I live nearly pain free. She is caring, funny and really cares about her patients. I highly recommend The Bend!"
