The atmosphere was very professional and doctors and staff were thorough.
From reception to physician, everyone was great and extremely helpful. Despite being short staffed, they still provided me with quality care. However, I would love to see more staffing implemented to help with the workflow and prevent burnout. I would hate to see this group of amazing staff to be burnt out.
The doctor is a very good and approachable person who understands the patients and gives confidence. i am very pleased that the doctor is here. Thank you very much.
Nice doctors
