I am very satisfied with my doctor. Although I usually find it difficult to feel comfortable with doctors I don’t know, he managed the situation very well — professional, polite, and with a good sense of humor. The whole team is polite and welcoming. However, I would suggest reviewing the current policy regarding appointment cancellations or rescheduling, as unexpected situations can happen to anyone.
