What WE DID WELL
(Answers:674)
Everyone staff, doctor and assistant, were very nice and helpful.
#12025-04-16The bedside manner of Dr. Ringpfeil.
#22025-06-30The attention Dr. Abraham gave to me.
#32012-07-24 12:29:37Using a computer to fill out the new patient forms!
#42026-01-25I am very self conscious about my acne but everyone made me feel very comfortable!
#52025-10-30The knowledge, helpfulness, and friendliness of every person in this office has made me decide to have my daughter and me be seen here instead of by a doctor in the area in which we live (more than half an hour away). Thank you.
#62025-04-23No waiting!
#72012-09-06 10:30:16very professional
#82025-08-25The doctor explained things thoroughly to me. She was able to treat a couple of skin growths on site today. I was given a couple of sample products as well as a coupon toward the purchase of one of the prescribed products that I am to use.
#92011-05-18 16:40:00No wait time for appointment - attentiveness of PA
#102011-05-04 19:03:57What can we do better?
(answers:373)
I was feeling a bit thirsty the whole stay in the office, maybe making some water available during waiting time would make the stay more comfortable.
#12025-10-26Just keep doing what the company is doing and yall will be fine. no problems at all i will refer anybody to this compnay
#22025-06-20I cant think of anything
#32025-04-09Thank you for your help. I will definitely recommend Dr. Ringpfeil to friends.
#42025-12-01no complaints
#52025-04-11no complains
#62026-02-18Can't think of anything. I feel good about this visit.
#72010-09-09 11:47:56nothing everything is fine as is.
#82025-10-30More appointment availability either early or later (before or after the normal 9-5 workday)
#92010-08-23 16:22:28I 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.
