Dr acted as though she didn't believe me or the symptoms that I was describing, didn't explain test results, sent a prescription to my pharmacy but did not follow up with my pharmacy regarding a question that they had so the prescription was never able to be filled. Dr spent the entire appointment looking at her computer screen instead of looking at and listening to the patient.

I am happy That this office finally got a examining table that is low and they can go up and down because being a patient that does not have mobility it is so easy for me now to get up there for check ups

Dr. P is always so helpful. I get constant flare up's with my condition and she's always very understanding. She's helped me find the best medication to help with the pain and manage the symptoms. The nurses are also amazing.. at both locations
