Very friendly staff. Efficient and swift check out.
July 1, 2024Michelle M.Verified patient
While the treatment she prescribed worked for my condition, I felt that she spoke too quickly during the appointment. Since patients like me are paying out of pocket, it’s important to feel fully heard and have all instructions clearly explained. I hope she can slow down and spend a bit more time with patients to provide the top-notch care that people are paying for.

Yes nut the amount of personal info requested was far beyond necessary and too difficult to navigate impossible to answer questions this should be completely redone
