      from John 4.0 Stars - (2025-12-09)
  • "I have been a patient here for a bit less than a year, and I must say the attention given me from all the staff has been excellent. My physician, Dr. Schklar, is knowledgeable, empathetic and wholly concerned with your over-all health and well-being. The place can be a bit off-putting at first, in that it is a large office attending to many patients, but it is done so professionally and well that you soon realize that they see you as the individual you are, and provide you with the attention you would expect from a top-tier medical establishment."
