They do not draw blood for your physical and that was mainly the purpose of my visit, but the nurse practitioner and the staff were great. I de not have to wait and that is excellent for me. Unfortunately they partner with quest diagnostics, so I had to make another appointment to get my blood to the lab.

Best Doctor I've seen in years . I felt like before with my established PCP they would brush everything off . Even if it wasn't something to be concerned about Dr Diaz took the time to walk through each and every concern I had . Was not just quick to hand me a prescription . Actually recommended we monitor concerns before jumping into prescription drugs ?? Highly recommend . Also Dr assistant and secretary were on point . Had issues with Zocdoc appearing as my annual was done , she confirmed with my insurance it was not yet completed expeditiously, which is rare to find in the health care industry now a days ????????
