“The doctor I was supposed to see wasn’t there. The desk told me I could wait an hour or be seen by a PA. I opted to get in with the PA. The assistant and PA were good, although the PA seemed rushed. Regardless, she was efficient. The entire appointment lasted less than 15 minutes.”

Will continue to visit as routine and or as necessary. Extremely lovely, efficient and professional from check in to check out. Appreciate all the expertise and care.
Doc and PAs were nice. One person at the front was pretty rude and waited until I had already been waiting for 40 minutes to tell me my appointment was at 11:15 when it was at 10:15 per ZocDoc. I showed her my confirmation, and she shrugged and was super dismissive. I arrived at 10:10am and left the office at 11:30am. About 25 min of that time was spent in the exam room. Parking was valet-only and charged by 15 minute increments. I recommend looking for street parking.
As a first time patient today of Dr. Bussell, let me just say that she made me feel so comfortable. She really took time to listen and to inspect my problem areas- I felt like she really cared about addressing my concerns. I have sjogrens autoimmune disorder, which if you do as well, you know how hard it is to find a doctor in any field that has any idea what it is, or the health issues it causes, how to treat the issues, etc. Dr. Bussell is the best doctor I have encountered thus far when it comes to her immuno knowledge and feedback. I really trusted her advice and recommendations and look forward to seeing her as one of my regular care providers moving forward.

A perfect experience

The doctor was really sweet and comforting at our first appointment I made an urgent first visit cause I woke up with a rather unpleasant to look at and painful breakout. She had me sorted out in no time and put together a perscription- free acne treatment plan to start with which I really appreciated.
