Dr. Duerkes was kind and listened to my ailments. However, I can only give three stars because the blonde secretary/front desk clerk was rude, condescending, arrogant, conceded, and vile. A company or doctor who employs or doesn't reprimanded someone like that is a place or doctor that I don't want to care for me.
