Nina is a skilled provider with excellent communication and listening skills. Her bedside manner is very good, and she takes concerns seriously and takes time to explain treatment plans and answer questions. I highly recommend her care.
Verified patient
She was thorough regarding reason for my visit. She was professional, kind and compassionate. I was having a hard day (unrelated to purpose of appointment) and thought about canceling the appointment but glad I didnt. No question, I would happily rebook with her.
Verified patient
Great bedside manner, good listener, spoke clearly and in terms that were understood, asked if I had any questions for her or about the course of treatment prescribed, Will definitely follow up in 3 months as instructed, or sooner if needed.
Verified patient
Very quick, easy, and efficient: didn't wait long at all, friendly staff worked well and helped a first timer like me--furthermore, staff also helped easily schedule an appointment next month to ensure and monitor the status and condition of my problems. The waiting room, while a bit small, is comfortable, and the examination room itself is also fairly comfortable and not too small, offering sufficient space. Staff were engaged and willing to help and understand. I had not been pointed towards this clinic; instead, I found it myself and brought with me past medical papers for assistance, which the staff understood and looked over without issue. Overall, went pretty well.
