Linda is the best. Always look forward to seeing her and staff
Everyone in the office was kind and courteous, especially the provider. I am happy I have established care with my provider and she made me feel very comfortable and she was very easy to talk to and listened to all of my concerns.
Linda is the best. She is truly listening when I speak, and she has more empathy than anyone I've encountered in healthcare in a long time. I want my daughters to see her when they age out of pediatrics—that's how much I trust her.
Linda Paiva has been my caregiver for several years. She makes me feel like family and has a thorough understanding of my physical needs. I am a very complicated case and she is up to date on the latest developments in the field concerning my conditions. She is wonderful.

Professional from receptionist, CNA, to Provider to Exit Secretary.
