(answers:373)
Thank you
#12011-02-23 17:11:29It's a little warm in the office.
#22025-09-09I 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.
#32010-10-04 12:14:56So far, everything is great. Looking forward to future visits.
#42025-06-17Service was extremely good.
#52011-01-27 16:47:12No changes needed.
#62025-01-18Can't think of anything. I feel good about this visit.
#72010-09-09 11:47:56everything was beyond my expectations . No doctor has ever given me such a complete exam
#82010-10-07 10:02:42There was some wait between my initial interview with the medical assistantand my meeting the physician. This wait could have been shorter.
#92025-04-23Everything was great!
