What WE DID WELL
(Answers:674)
We liked that Dr. Ringpfeil explained everything to us and made my daugther (almost 6 yo) feel very comfortable in the office. She was very friendly, kind and professional.
#12025-09-24Everyone was so nice! I've never been to a doctor's office where everyone is so pleasant and the service is so quick! I didn't wait at all! You guys are great!
#22011-10-05 11:53:28Staff was friendly, attentive and polite. Dr Ringpfeild is the first Dr I seen that has been able to provide a viable resolution for my condition
#32025-04-02I liked the staff and the doc!
#42025-02-09I liked how she listened to my issues and is addressing them aggressively. I've seen too many Dermatologists who don't seem to know how to go about treating me.
#52025-08-24Everything
#62025-09-27I have been to a number of derm docs....often it seems as though they have you try this or that but never seem to have a clear plan as to how they will treat ALL of the issues at hand. Thank you for taking the time to address each one of my concerns.
#72025-07-20Friendly, well educated
#82025-02-10all people very nice.
#92025-08-02Dr. Ringpfeil was my second opinion and I felt much more at ease with the time she took to understand my issues and explanation for solutions.
#102011-01-04 09:06:32What can we do better?
(answers:373)
I can't think of anything at this time.
#12025-02-23No room for improvement
#22025-12-15Only the 30 minute wait time really should be shortened.
#32025-07-31So glad I came. Always liked Dr. Kern and Ann Watson. He'd be so pleased with your entire professional setup
#42026-01-23Don't change anything, it's excellent.
#52010-11-08 15:17:21I had requested an email for appointment purposes. Was never sent. Other than that - Excellent!
#62025-07-10Don't know, you guys did a great job.
