Patient Comments (26)
The wait room is nice and quiet. The wait time for my appointment was 30 minutes. But, I believe this was caused by the previous patient and her needy questioning.
It was all good. Staff friendly. Dr P listened to my concerns and I was informed about the next steps that are available to correct my medical condition. I will not hesitate to return.
Everything was done properly. Dr Petrulio explained things to me thoroughly so I could understand my situation.
