“The appointment was good and smooth. Their communication was really good and I was able to be seen in efficient time. The clinic was also very clean and organized. My only hiccup for the appointment was when it was time to draw blood. I am already scared about having blood drawn but the nurse also wasn't able to get my blood drawn correctly so I have to follow up in a week to possibly draw blood again depending on if it was enough blood received the last appointment.”

Great, efficient.
I wasn’t going to leave a review, until the office manager herself ignored my request to have my lab results sent to me. I did not have a good experience at this practice. The room where you answer questions and get your blood drawn has no door and everyone in the office can hear all of your conversations with the nurse. The bathrooms had dirt in the corners of the floor. The nurse could not draw my blood and stuck me three times in the same place. This doctor was not willing to listen to my symptoms, did not give me a complete physical, and said to me herself that I could choose another doctor if I was unhappy with her level of care. When I decided I felt unhappy coming back and requested that my lab results be emailed to me, I was ignored by two separate members of staff. Both a said they would email me and then never got around to it, i guess. I will never return to this doctor and am still waiting, two weeks after my appointment, for my results.
