March 18, 2023Jody G.Verified patient
Poor bedside manner, felt like he didn’t care and was itching to get out. Also seemed like he was trying to upsell instead of actually give the best advice for my health.

Maureen is a very kind, sweet Woman who works hard behind the desk. I go to this practice because of the great Dr. Care I get and to see Maureen. I feel safe and cared for when she is there. Maureen is humble and caring. The doctor is lucky to have her work there.

Dr gave me lots of time to discuss my medical issues and recommended an FDA proven treatment for neuropathy, which I recently began. Am hopeful it’ll be helpful. Office team very nice and helpful. Would definitely recommend this practice.
September 28, 2022Barbara S.Verified patient
I came in with an ingrown toe nail on the right big toe. Only issue is ZocDoc appointment conflicted with an appointment of another patient that was made over a month ago. Staff made sure I was helped immediately! Doctor came in and looked like he had treated this a million times before, LOL! He numbed me and removed ingrown toe nail with no issues. I was in and out! Instructed to return in 14 days and to come sooner if I suspect inspection. Service at front desk was great and in the back area where you check out.
