Very friendly staff. Efficient and swift check out.
July 1, 2024Michelle M.Verified patient
While the treatment she prescribed worked for my condition, I felt that she spoke too quickly during the appointment. Since patients like me are paying out of pocket, it’s important to feel fully heard and have all instructions clearly explained. I hope she can slow down and spend a bit more time with patients to provide the top-notch care that people are paying for.
