Patient Reviews
Feb 14, 2021
Absolute sharp contrast from a HORRIBLE experience I had with another doctors office. Appointments were made FAST, staff exemplified the epitome of professionalism and accommodation to their patients. The check- in process for a first time patient took as long (if not shorter) as ordering a meal at a fast food joint. And then, the provider saw me. You really feel like you matter in this office with how you are treated by staff. The provider listened to all my concerns, and definitely went the full 9 yards when it came to my chief complaints and concerns and getting them addressed. It was the easiest appointment I've ever had. I left the office feeling like there was not one thing to address because everything was expeditiously taken care of. I'm so glad I'm with this doctor's practice.
