I’ve never had an issue. The staff is wonderful and the doctor is great. The only medical provider able to figure out why I was so sick for 3 months. He is attentive and listens to your questions and concerns. Get straight to the point but doesn’t make you feel rushed at all. Wish I would’ve found him sooner!!
