I liked my Dr. Sheely very much, and I'm very sorry that I had to transfer, because it's just too busy over there. That ... it's too hard to get an appointment, and there's too many people, and it just ... the system has changed so much in past few years, so I'm happy to be at the longevity clinic, and I'm happy to have Dr. Obi. I think he's going to be a very good Dr, and it seems to be much easier to get care over there, cause there are less people. So, I like it so far. Thank you.

We have seen Dr Ob over the last year and he is always very knowledgeable and communicative. He engages and it is obvious he does care. Also we saw Emily and she was very detail oriented as well. This visit the nurse we saw was I think Angela and she was good too. We normally communicate with Susan who is always helpful.

The person at the front desk was sleeping when I went to make a return appointment and was aggravated that she had to wake up to wait on me
