Patient Reviews
Only my first visit, the office staff was brusk, but the Doctor was very helpful.
He's very thorough, professional, knowledgeable and always makes you feel at ease. The girls at front desk are friendly, efficient and in my case, unlike most of the staff at other doctors, they went to great lengths to sort out all my foreign insurance paperwork, so that I wouldn't have to pay the bills and claim afterwards.
Knowledgeable, courteous, professional - easy enough to talk to about sensitive issues
