“It's very difficult to find a good doctor and even more difficult to find a good doctor with good qualified assistance. From the beginning to the end it was a pleasure. We only rate medical patient service with three standards ( poor/average/good) . Patricia's office visit was a good five-star visit, very thorough examinations/tests explained in layman terms of the findings/results of the examination to include future requirements. Thank you, and I agree with Dr." the best part was leaving without any prescriptions".”
