She listened and gave advice
Allowed me to check in before arriving. Brought me to a room on time and my provider arrived within a few minutes. The nurse who weighed me and took my vitals was wonderful and friendly.All in all great office visit.P.S.I love the new office.
I felt rushed. The staff and the provider listened to what I was saying but the visit felt like it was timed for only so long. I was not sure if I was able to get my points across. The provider did tell me she understood me and advised a course of action to proceed with.
The office is great as usual
