Reception was friendly and proffesional, and the Doctor was, nice and took his time to explain everything to make sure I understood my treatment.
(1) DN receive a reminder for annual check up. (2) Was not told of new location so I went to the "Old Norris". Fortunately I was early. (3) Channel - who did the mammogram was WONDERFUL! (4) Had to wait 1 hr + for Dr. Silberman who was his usual efficient & kind self.
