This was my first visit. It's hard to base a well-considered opinion on one visit. I would rather do so after several visits or after I complete my treatment plan.

I was a little nervous going in. However, I calmed down immediately. The staff were polite and calm. Of course, my Doctor calmed all the way down. I left feeling relieved. Thanks to everyone.

I felt so welcomed from the time I entered until I walked out the door. The assistants were cordial and made me feel comfortable. The doctor put me at ease about the procedure and throughly explained my condition and how to make it better. Prescriptions sent immediately.I definitely would recommend friends to consider going there.
