Patient Reviews
Nov 03, 2023
The doctor was very nice. He spoke in a way that I could understand what my condition is and my options for treatment. The office staff on the other hand is TERRIBLE!!! I have called the office 4 times and even went in person to leave a message so someone could call me back. I never heard from them. It has been 5 weeks now and not one call back!! I am going to have to look for another doctor.
