What WE DID WELL
(Answers:674)
yES, THERE WAS A DELAY IN SEEING THE DOCTOR AND THE MEDICAL ASST. ACTUALLY APOLOGIZED AND EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM. THAT RARELY HAPPENS IN ANY DOCTORS OFFICE I HAVE EVER BEEN IN.
#12010-11-11 10:41:38Promptness
#22011-06-06 08:59:45Excellent service, did not have to wait long to be seen!
#32025-03-30I liked the fact that they took me in right away and everyone was very pleasant.
#42011-11-02 12:13:13everybody smiles
#52011-12-16 09:57:55This is one of the best medical offices that I have visited. I see doctors in the Penn and Bryn Mawr systems and this is by far much better than any of those offices. The entire staff is friendly and accommodating. Both doctors are awesome! I have recommended you to family and friends. Keep up the great work!
#62012-12-03 17:05:27I normally am turned off by palatial offices, but the office is so aesthetically beautiful, the fittings and art work so exquisite, that I am filled with admiration.

#32011-01-10 12:20:58The service was great I don't see anything better u can do!
#42025-01-17I have no suggestions. I am very pleased with ever aspect of my care
#52010-10-18 16:25:51So far, everything is great. Looking forward to future visits.
#62025-03-23I had problems with my insurance. Since you took my insurance information over the phone it might have been nice to know that before I came in so I could have fixed it.
#72011-05-19 10:14:50Thank you
#82011-02-23 17:11:29I checked off compimentary consultation with aesthetician on the intake forms, but it wasn't mentioned and I forgot to ask during the examination.
