Amazing! My doctor was very insightful and listened to every concern. She was extremely knowledgeable and showed great care.
Verified patient
My daughter has an injury on her tongue and urgent care wanted us to follow up with the ENT. I book an appt with the next available doctor which was her, just to get to the appointment with my daughter who’s in excruciating pain, to be told she doesn’t see other doctors patients, even though they’re in the same practice. Extremely disappointed and annoyed for my daughter and the amount of pain she’s in. That’s extremely unprofessional and inconsiderate of the patients. Now my daughter can’t get scene until next Monday , by a doctor she hasn’t scene in years and her injury won’t matter by then. So thanks for the waste of time and the disappointment for my 7 year old. Make sure you aren’t wasting your time before you schedule, especially if you have scene another doctor because you won’t be able to see another one.

I would certainly go back.

She didn’t ask many questions. I felt like she was in a hurry and didn’t want to really listen to what I said. I think she was overbooked and had too many appointments. Her bedside manner was not real friendly.
