January 18, 2021Jt N.Verified patientVideo visit
The office contacted us and everything seemed good to go. We waited for 30 minutes in a virtual waiting room, just to be told information that SHOULD have been relayed to us before we ever got onto the video call. This was a ridiculous WASTE OF TIME for people who are clearly NEEDING CARE. Moving forward the app/website and these admins should inform guests prior to GETTING ON A VIDEO CALL. So many people failed to due their due diligence and it results in really unhappy guests.

Dr Sawal is AMAZING. The moment you speak with him you can tell he is a genuine and kind person who really cares about every single one of his patients. From start to finish I felt like I had his undivided attention, did not feel rushed, and felt like he really cared. Probably one of the best doctors I’ve encountered and definitely found my new PCP!
