Patient Reviews
Dec 07, 2016
Dr. Converse took his time with me. He listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions. He never made me feel rushed. I was extremely anxious when I arrived, and he was able to address my fears and when I left, I was at ease. He is a very kind and understanding doctor. I was the last patient of the day on a Friday afternoon, and I never felt like the staff or the doctor were impatient to get out. They were very professional.
