I came in on June 11 morning and the lobby had one other patient waiting. The medical assistant gave me all the information I needed and had my completed forms from zocdoc which meant all I had to do was sign and date. They do charge $20 to draw blood for physicals which they informed me about as soon as I made my appt so there were no surprises there. The male nurse was very kind, he explained all my vitals in a way I understood clear and gave me basic physical advice which I appreciate. Everything went by quickly without me feeling rushed. I hope I have found my new local family physician 5 mins away from home.

Fantastic! I felt horrible at work, he was the only doctor in range that had appointments after 4:00. There was no wait, no issues, he got me in and out with no delay and a script for some antibiotics to start feeling better. HIGHLY recommend!
