The friendly staff, the wait time to be seen, and the explain of the results.
Verified patient
With a list of prior issues with procedure made no direct feedback was given aside from external wear. In other words, nurse practitioner covered but did not elaborate on exact key issues aside from an external use needed to reduce pain.
Verified patient
Long wait time. Got there at 2. Didn't see the doctor till at least 4. I had to wait about an hour to be called in for my ultrasound. Other than that all the staff were very nice. Doctor was straight forward and got to the point, could improve on people skills a bit.
