Very rude. Said I was lying about certain test that he said I had but I did not have. Also said I was allergic to medicine and when I told him it wasn't so he said well you must be because it's on your chart. He was upset at me because my doctor sent me to him. I will never recommend him to anyone else

It’s a great environment. The staff is very welcoming.. There was no wait time they had me in and out, but took the time to see if I had any questions or concerns. And make sure I understood what was going on.
