Was a good experience. Used go to piedmont several yrs ago and it was not very good. Nurse and doctor were very personable and helpful. Seemed to really care about you.

Had my first visit with Dr Paauw since Dr Vogel retired. I liked him but hear he is going to FL, so now will have to have another new Dr Barbosa. Don't like having so many changes !
