“Dr. Bussell was very welcoming and professional. Very patient and seemed to listen to my issues. I would definitely follow up with him should I need to. On a side note…I would recommend that this office address include the elevator number to get to it. For some reason this office is located in the middle of the hallway sort of tucked away. Almost couldn’t find it,I had to go through the corridor twice …Strange set up”
