(answers:373)
I've never been in a medical office that was so warm and inviting. The decor and overall appearance has the feel of your living room but also reminds you that you are in a clinical environment as well. This practice surpasses my expectations in every way, from the staff, dress code, advances in technology and overall care of the patient. I was made to feel that my care is your number one priority.
#12011-04-29 11:02:03I am new here, so I don't have any suggestions at this time
#22025-07-31It's a little warm in the office.
#32025-08-26Complain to the insurance industry that they cove too little, complain to the product manufactures that they truely charge too much for the products. I feel that the industry in general is very slow to treat because of insurance allowances. Patients have busy work schedules and pay for monthly coverage that covers too little. In one hour or less could do what multiple appointments do to remove or treat small skin defects require many visits. Should provide payment better incentives.
#42010-11-10 12:28:11I was served perfectly
#52011-02-14 08:46:29Everything was wonderful
#62025-09-22More convenient office hours for those who work during the day. Perhaps one evening?
#72011-03-16 11:16:24You can't improve upon excellence.
#82025-06-05Everything was outstanding
#92011-11-18 16:18:36When making a first appointment ask who ther person would like to see. Doctor vs Aesthetician
