Exceptional Healthcare Service
Have more time with your patient's and get to know them and let's not assume what they have. Listen to the patient's because we know how our body functions. I know have no blood clots in my lungs because if i did i would be in the hospital. Not all patients recover from having the first virus. Study and listen and have time with your patient's. You are a great Dr.
Thank you so much Dr.
Highly recommend her.
It was a very good experience.
The doctor was very informative and gave good guidance.
All above items were handled extremely well. I'm VERY Satisfied with my visit.
