Great visit! Jen was terrific, great asset!
Chris was outstanding, efficient, knowledgeable and reassuring.
Dr Gillon was, as we remembered him….knowledgeable, very thorough, explained everything to me and formed a plan of care for me.
One recommendation we would make is that the parking is a bit awkward for those with any disability or injury. The handicapped parking spots are the farthest away from the entrance, and the RAMP is awkward to get to….We do realize that the parking issue is possibly due to municipality regs.
Thank you for a great healthcare visit.

Office and staff are wonderful, they communicate well and provide excellent organized service within the office. They explain what they’re doing why they’re doing it. Dr Gillon himself is very personable very human, just a very warm person. My overall experience at their office was great, and I had to have an injection! So I really appreciate all of their time
