      from F. 5.0 Stars - (2025-02-12)
  • "Love this doctor's office. The staff and doctors are extremely nice, the office and lobby are very clean, and the best part is the WAIT TIME!! I've never had to wait more than 5-10 minutes to be seen. Other doctors offices take hours to see their patients even with appointments in place so as a busy mom and business owner I really appreciate being able to be seen at my appointment time and getting out within a decent time. I received 2 blood transfusions so far here and have seen a significant improvement in my health and energy levels. I will continue to do follow up appointments here for my Anemia."
