Great experience with this doctor. He was kind, knowledgable and a great listener. He took time to explain questions I had and I didn't feel rushed which has been my complaint in the past with other doctors. The nurse who helped me at first and the rest of the staff were friendly too. Overall a good experience and I will definitely do my yearly check up here! Also they had a lab for blood work in the same building which was convenient
