What WE DID WELL
(Answers:674)
Beautiful Office and Wonderful Staff!
#12026-02-06appreciated the thorough explanation from the doctor and the instant research on a product I wanted to know more about
#22026-01-19The doctor and her Medical Assistant are very thorough and they take time to explain everything that you need to understand.
#32025-09-21I don't have insurance, and Dr.Ringpfeil carfully thought about my situation and prescripted with my budget. Very nice and explained each medication that I'm on. LOVE THIS PLACE! hope my face gets better fast..
#42010-11-10 08:24:10I really liike the office space . I get a good feeling when i first cam in here. I alos like the doctor , shes seem very intelligent.
#52025-07-13Everything was easy, transitions were smooth, staff was friendly, everyone smiled. It was a great experience
#62012-07-26 11:37:17i was seeing the docter at my appointment time
#72025-12-12The prfessionalism of the staff and the attentiveness of the physician. Also the timliness of the staff.
#82011-01-26 08:55:26Thoroughness of exam.
#92011-01-12 12:33:33Just enjoyed everyone here at the practice. Medical excellece based on intelligence rather than ego (did I really say that)!
#102012-10-25 11:48:39What can we do better?
(answers:373)
This has been one the best office that i have been to in forever.
#12025-09-27was fine
#22025-04-26The lock on the door of the unisex bathroom is a little challenging in that you don't know whether it is locked or not. This was a little unnerving.
#32010-10-28 10:21:25I have a suggestion: I noticed that two of the lovely rugs pose hazards to patients using walkers or who may have other mobility issues. The large rug placed at an angle and the narrow rug placed in front of the reception desk leave no room for these individuals to safely manuveur around the reception area and are likely to contribute to fall risks. I would suggest leaving these areas clear.
#42010-10-04 12:14:56Get some better parking spaces
#52025-08-18No complaints at all, but since you asked, receptionist today could have been "warmer"
#62010-08-25 10:41:35Service was excellent!
#72010-09-30 13:09:12Everything was great! and everyone was very nice.
#82010-10-19 10:16:48Please consider offering more appointments after 5pm since it can be a challenge to take time off from work.
#92025-12-23Everything was great.
