Well, it was a good experience. I've been there before, but this time I made the first appointment. I didn't get seen until after my appointment, like close to 8:30, and I was there at 7:30, actually 7:15. And it was like me waiting. I thought I'd be done at least by 30 minutes. That's what it said. But otherwise, it was okay.

Yes, I feel like you guys could be a pediatric. There's just no color in the building. I just think it would be nice if you guys added some colorful colors inside the building. And it's not so bland. Just a lot of other kids, doctors have color paint or more kid functional things inside their office. So just a suggestion. But besides that, everyone was great.
