Very professional, surgery center was very clean. Staff were very friendly.
Good Dr
Dr. Hammer had excellent communication skills. He explained what he needed to do to examine my throat and guided me through the procedure. He wasn't overly warm but he was approachable and answered my questions respectfully. I'm glad I went to him for my issue.
He had an attitude the whole time. Sighing loudly at me and getting frustrated when my child was scared and screaming. He obviously didn't want to be there.
I really enjoy going to see Dr. Hammer and his staff. They are all very kind and knowledgeable to there patients. They provide excellent care.
He was very patient, understanding and straightforward…. He was helpful.
I give the whole staff a 10
Listens well to concerns. Answers questions in plain English. Patient, clear and concise.
Very nice. Was seen in a timely matter
It was my first time seeing Dr. Howard and all I can say is I will not be back. Super unwelcoming and cold. Did not use gloves and was not gentle during my appointment.
