I was very nervous about this appointment because I knew there was a possibility I would have to have a minor procedure done for my ingrown nails. He was very good at reassuring me it would be painless and easy. He was very professional, and also made sure to make me feel comfortable and relaxed. I would highly recommend seeing this doctor.

The staff and the doctor was very nice. However my son's appointment was for 10 but when we got there they says it v was for 10:20. I showed her my 10 am appointment confirmation. Was told "we do that so people have time to fill out paper work." My son was not taken back to a ron till 11:10 am.
Once we got back to the room we were treated very professionally. All our questions we answered.
