The Doctor is great and well experienced but unfortunately, the office is terrible with terribly managed with lots of attitudes. They do not know anything and they do not want to help you with anything. The wait time was terrible for hours without letting me in advance from the office. The staff can easily let us know that doctor is late by an hour but No. I think the Medical center needs to focus again on their role and services how they can improve.
Dr. Merola is super nice and genuinely cares and knows what he is doing! I highly recommend seeing him.
