    He need to have more respect for his clients time, and to learn some customer service skills, seeing he is providing a service to customers.

    Very good experience. Would recommend to others

  • Oct 17, 2023

    I was a little nervous at first when the doctor came in he was very pleasant and made me feel comfortable. He explained everything to me on my level that I could understand it. He answered all my questions. And asked me what was my opinion. I really like and respect the doctor for that. I would recommend him to other people.
