The doctor spent nearly a half hour with me on my first visit. She thoroughly reviewed my medical history, made appropriate suggestions and took time to listen to me. I was impressed and will definitely continue with her as my primary care doctor.

June 5, 2025Apolinar L.Verified patient
My overall experience at this practice was amazing, although there were technical difficulties doing my patient history on a link sent to me.. everything else was fantastic. The staff, the wait time, ease of setting appointment, and although my first visit the Dr was great and very informative and attentive. Thank you.
