Whenever I make an appointment, I'm always confident that they're going to be ready for me at my scheduled time. At other places I've been to, it's always bothered me when they postpone my appointment, but they've never done that here. I didn't have to spend a lot of time in the waiting room at all. I only spent a couple of minutes in there. The staff was very friendly and warm. They went out of their way to make me feel respected and cared for.
