“My appointment was virtual, so it was maybe a little more awkward than in person, but that is to be expected. Intake specialist Mrs. Nettles did a great job listening to my concerns to make sure my therapist would be the right fit. ”

“I felt tge Appointment went well for what it was. Was more to gather information to book me with my assigned dr. Which I was under the impression was going to be the person I picked on zoc doc but it would be someone in her group. That said, the young lady gathering my background information was very thorough and helpful and has commuted to finding someone within their practice that fits my needs. ”
