“Beats going to a walk in clinic where you end up waiting hours next to patient's that are sick and run the risk of contacting something. I also wasn't put on a waiting list months out like I have experienced with doctors in my town. I was able to be seen same day and had choices as to what time slots would work best. Doctor took the time to listen to all my concerns and I did not at any time feel rushed. It was a great experience wish I would have gone this route sooner!”
