Professional and easy to talk to. I never have to wait. I'm treated and on my way in less that 30 minutes.
She took her time to talk to me and she listened we came up with a strategy together, to help with my issues. I did not feel any pressure to hurry up so she could get to the next patient. some drs try to get you in and out. And the staff was pleasant even the young lady in training.
Su atención es excelente a pesar q no hablo english trata siempre de que me sienta a gusto en su consulta como también

Dr sonnanstine is thorough, professional and compassionate.
She found an issue not even addressed by my primary. Also, she & her team listened to me, too, which I can’t say about my primary! Very knowledgable, friendly, kind, compassionate, & professional. I would highly recommend her!!!!
Love her and her staff.I've had a particular problem for many years and only one doctor before her has listened to what I know is the only treatment that seems to help me and once I told her what I know helps she agreed with me and referred me to that practitioner.
