Feb 27, 2023

I’ve been out of town for a few months taking care of my elderly parents in another state. Impossible for me to leave them. Dr Sands office has seen to my continued medical care during this very difficult time. They’ve gone above and beyond to work with me and my medical care. The whole staff is so helpful and responsive to my health care needs. Absolutely Amazing Care
