Patient Reviews
Jan 08, 2020
Very honest, to the point, she did not waste my time with non sense pleasantries that neither of us will remember at the next visit. She is a doctor and acted as such- came in, reviewed my problems, looked me over and told me what she thought. I asked a few questions, she answered and that is that.
