Excellency and professional in every area

I am amazed by my experience here. Every single person I came into contact with was so caring. Evan is one of the best medical personnel I have experienced. I appreciate all of the help I received, and that Dr Patel spent the time with me to explain my diagnosis. Micah was very helpful with getting paperwork off of my phone and into my chart. I feel like I was truly cared for. An exceptional experience.
