What WE DID WELL
(Answers:674)
The friendly people who work here are great. Probably the best thing, though, is the timeliness of service. Most physicians make me wait far past my appointment time. I appreciate on-time service immensely!
#12025-06-21The prfessionalism of the staff and the attentiveness of the physician. Also the timliness of the staff.

#52025-01-25This 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!
