My experience with the Hughston Clinic on Taylor Road was excellent. I arrived a few minutes before my appointment and was called back soon, with a very short wait. Most of my time was with the nurse practitioner, who was very nice and helpful. She questioned me, explained things, and answered my questions, without being in a hurry to move on to another patient. Dr Woessner came in later and also was nice and helpful, explaining the issue and answering my questions. 5 stars.
