They kept things moving and on time during my visit.
I received a correct diagnosis and up-to-date treatment.

The provider really listened, gave me the time I needed, and put me at ease.
We discussed treatment options and choices I have.
The provider addressed traditional and alternative medicine treatment options in an open-minded way.
