Need to provide a more accurate description of the office location. The building has no address label or indication that this office was located there. It was quite confusing.
February 5, 2021Alexis A.Verified patient
Confusion when I first arrived as they don't use the front door that is in front of the parking but the ladies in the front desk were polite. I am satisfied with the information provided from Dr. Darlene. It was my 1st time. She seems to care about patients. Knowledble and open to listen.
