Patient Reviews
Apr 21, 2022
Each of Dr. Hughes’ staff were professional but also kind and friendly so that I felt comfortable with the whole evaluation process, although the woman at the frint desk seemed irritated I dis not have my paperwork filled out when I checked in (as I told her, I dis not receive any paperwork in the mail or email to complete). However, I might have misread her. Lisa was great! She patiently stepped me through the pulmonary tests as if they were pleasant tasks. The X-ray and checkout staff were great too
