Patient Reviews
Jul 14, 2022
I was referred to this practice by my primary. This is definitely new territory for me. My visit was definitely routed to the "express lane". When I asked a question the response was quick and dismissive. I'm thinking I made a mistake but a lot of bloodwork is pending so I'm kind of stuck. Very disappointing.
