“Overall positive impression. I only had one appointment so far, and the doctor was very friendly and patient. He listened to and answered all my questions. The only thing that seemed a bit weird is that the office staff told me they don’t receive any info from ZocDoc which I thought was strange (other than the appointment itself). There was also a lot more paperwork in office, which I thought could have been filled out electronically ahead of time. But I’m looking forward to going back, as far as medical appointments go. ”
