What WE DID WELL
(Answers:674)
Promptness of being seen by physician, excellent, friendly staff. Dr. really listened and offered a plan to resolve my problem.
#12011-10-17 11:50:17Everyone very freindly. That's important.
#22025-02-13The entire staff was friendly, efficient and professional. Office and exam room were immaculate. Exam was thorough and complete. I have peace of mind that I have no problems at this time.
#32012-10-16 12:55:55appreciated the thorough explanation from the doctor and the instant research on a product I wanted to know more about
#42025-01-02The doctor definitely has a wonderful bedside manner, so unexpected when a woman my age is dealing with aging vanity issues.
#52025-06-08Everything was explained to me in detail; the doctor especially was very thorough both during and after her examination.
#62025-05-23I actually was able to see the physician, the physician assistant and the aesthetician, which was awesome for one visit! It shows that the team works together to provide patients with the best possible results.
#72011-10-04 14:18:20jenny's attention was excelent
#82011-11-30 09:16:36I loved the office space. Very friendly and the decor was very nice. I also appreciated the opportunity to do documentation on the computer.

(answers:373)
Everything was excellent.
#12025-07-27u guys r great here ,very professional, n kind .love coming here ...
#22011-09-26 14:29:08Almost too methodical - thought of one more 15 second type question after Dr. left re one spot not noted - would have waited some time to have her look at it. Told no time until lunch.
#32011-11-03 10:28:10The only (minor) thing that I was disappointed in was that when I booked the appt. via phone, I was told that in addition to my cosmetic questions and consult, the Dr. would also be able to do my full body check. It turned out that there was not enough time to do both.
#42011-07-27 15:04:39Keep up the thinks you are doing....
#52024-12-21Appointments available on shorter notice
#62010-10-25 10:00:31Well basically there is no need because your doing a very good job.

#82025-05-20NOPE; COULD NOT IMPROVE ON YOUR ARTISTRY IN HEALING ATMOSPHERE AND MEDICAL ATTENTIVENESS.
