The nurse's listen to any question we had and understand everything she had to tell the doctor
- 3 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/15/2025
The doctor gave the impression as to he wondered why we were there in the first place. We were referred there by the pcp, and he just stared at us waiting for us to say something several times. It was an awkward feeling.
