I was called in to see the doctor within a few minutes of my arrival. The staff was courteous and listened well to my concerns. The doctor explained my options well and made a plan to address my concerns. I was treated the same day and a follow up appointment was scheduled. Recommended.
Dr. Locke and his entire staff were very professional and caring. His nurse was especially kind. I was seen promptly at my appointment time. Extra shout-out for x-ray technician Cal, who was very friendly and insured minimal discomfort during the x-ray process.
