#22024-11-27Professionalism
#32024-11-30Friendly attentive staff and very nice ambience (love the art work!)
#42025-01-01Everyone was very nice! Thankyou for all your help!
#52025-05-17I liked the friendlyness and professionalism of the staff and the MD. I was very impressed with the thorough examination I received and the way the MD explained what she found on that exam.
#62025-07-31Personable experience.
#72011-04-26 10:31:17Thoroughness of exam.
#82011-01-12 12:33:33everything
#92025-09-01Doctor is extremely efficient and knowledgeable, and even discussed treatment for another condition -- my oral canker sores -- which nobody had ever mentioned previously. Also, the office is really lovely with nice music, rather than pical office music.
#102025-03-20What can we do better?
(answers:373)
Completely satisfied
#12010-10-20 09:59:20The service was great I don't see anything better u can do!
#22025-07-04Service was excellent!
#32010-09-30 13:09:12Everything was wonderful
#42024-11-28just keep up the good work
#52011-04-19 10:17:20Keep up the good work!
#62025-03-19Can't everything was excellent!!!
#72011-12-06 11:22:30The 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.
#82011-07-27 15:04:39maybe classical music on the radio? and some hunting and fishing magazines for the men. but the waiting period is so short it may not matter
#92010-11-08 11:23:38I have zero complaints--top notch service from booking of appointment to treatment to checkout.
