Verified patient
Doctor Damani is nice and professional, but the front desk was unprofessional and unfriendly, checked my insurance for 40mins when there was nobody waiting in front of me, which leads to unnecessary long wait time
Verified patient
I arrived early since it was my first visit. But since I was sent a link for registration all of my paperwork was completed already and didn't need to fill anything else on. Dr Damani was able to see me early and I was checked and out of there within 15minutes. Dr Damani was thorough and actively listening and kind. Would definitely recommend and come back!
The doctor was really good, but the office is outdated? They texted me ahead of time to fill out forms but sent the wrong link so they tried to do it when I arrived but there’s no cell service there and they don’t have Wifi. The office looks like it’s from the late 90s. It’s also like weirdly loud? Two guys were talking and I couldn’t hear the receptionist over them. Receptionists were listening to the radio.
Verified patient
I admire her professionalism and being patient-centered. She listens to my concerns and offers options. Also, she explained thoroughly my condition in a level that I can easily grasp. I would definitely recommend her. I have no regrets!
