#52025-05-25The people are friendly and understand.
#62024-12-25Everything was easy, transitions were smooth, staff was friendly, everyone smiled. It was a great experience
#72012-07-26 11:37:17How kind and attentive both Linda and Jenny were. I did not feel rushed and I did not feel pushed into buying products, which were two reasons I left the last practice I was using.
#82011-04-14 11:05:49Cute babes that worked in the office.
#92024-12-19n/a
#102025-01-08What can we do better?
(answers:373)
Service was excellent!
#12010-09-30 13:09:12May be by considering the comfort of the patients by allowing a grace period of atleast10-15mins and also by functioning on weekends too
#22025-07-24Keep up the good work!
#32025-07-22Everything to date that your office has performed has been done professionally and expeditiously. It's a pleasure to deal with all the staff.
#42025-03-09Its hard to find anything that you guys didn't do correct. Keep up the good work
#52011-08-03 11:52:57I am a little annoyed that I called to say I was on my way and I was told that I may not get here in time and will probably have to reschedule. Then when I got here, I filled out the paperwork then had to wait 20 minutes to be seen. It would be nice to know the receptionist's name so I know who I am calling when I have questions. It would be nice to have WiFi available during the wait.
#62011-06-22 17:06:20How about a smile to greet a brand new patient? How about explaining that I need to go and fill out info on the computer instead of pointing over there you need to complete things. I felt like walking out by the rudeness. The medical assistant and phys asst were extremely kind, thorough and helpful. I realized that I was here to seek help for my child and received amazing medical help. Thank you.
#72011-07-11 11:52:49Top rate service. A great total experience.
#82024-12-20I really am not sure how you could improve. The visit was actually relaxing.
#92025-03-04My first time experience was great and there are no improvements that I can suggest at this time.
