Very friendly. Very attentive.
Explained it so I could understand it. Gave me options. Very helpful I would visit again. Friendly staff.
Dr Rachel is a very knowledgeable doctor with a personal touch. He explained my treatment and allowed me to voice my opinion, my thoughts and my feelings of what is needed. I appreciate him for too many times a professional person would talk above their patients. He's not that way. Thank you Dr Rachel.
