A large one has to know my vision was fine. The doctor seems to know my whole medical history and was able to assist me in any questions that I had in reference to what was going on with my different problems or things that were going on that I felt I needed to know or that I needed to ask him. So he was very helpful and I would recommend him to any of my friends. Thank you very much. Goodbye.

The medical assistant and doctor were pleasant and professional. I enjoyed my visit Also the nurse who drew blood was the best phlebotomist I have ever experienced. Good job team.

Not only was it impossible to actually get an appointment with the doctor, once I did get an appointment with the doctor, I was told by that doctor that I had gone from state two to state three, but I was stable, so come back in nine months. Well, in that nine months' time, I went completely into kidney failure, and now I'm on dialysis without any consultations from that doctor, so that is why I did not approve of this doctor.
