What WE DID WELL
(Answers:674)
I was impressed that the doctor really listened to me and that she thoroughly answered my questions. Instead of telling me not to worry about things, she explained the nature of the condition and why it wasn't a concern. She also thoroughly explained my treatment options so I could make an informed decision.

#102026-03-09What can we do better?
(answers:373)
?water cooler in the waiting room?
#12025-05-27Everything was great! No further suggestion at this time.
#22026-01-11When making the initial appointment and then calling to try to get it moved up (our of fear that I had a melanoma), I didn't think that one of the booking person(s) was particularly helpful or reassuring.
#32026-03-31The music in the waiting area could be a bit softer.
#42026-01-29I wasn't aware that you can register online as a new patient. Can you guys make new patience aware
#52011-07-12 14:35:20Shorter wait, but not much else.
