“The front desk staff was pleasant. The x-ray technician and the nurse that took me back, were pleasant and very kind. I was in a lot of pain and moved very slowly, but they were patient and didn't try and rush me. Dr. Rabbitt was attentive and explained to me in detail what needed to be done. The only thing that I didn't like was there was a young man that came in the room with the Dr, and he wasn't introduced to me, nor was I asked if it would be OK to have an additional person involved in my visit. As the patient, I wasn't asked if I was OK with him being in the room for my visit. I'm pretty sure he was some type of intern/student, but I feel like this is something that should've been addressed. A lot of older folks are not always comfortable with someone being a part of the visit, especially if there is no clear communication regarding their role for being in the room. ”

“Great experience. Knee felt better almost immediately. Follow up appointment booked for 4 weeks out. Zocdoc has a few things to fix. Although there as an appointment held for Zocdoc they had no idea who the patient was or the issue. When I tried to sign in on the portal it just said no record and to see the receptionist. Someone needs to work on better communication.”
