The front staff and the nurse in behind were amazing. Very friendly, very courteous, very timely. I was greeted very nicely and warmly, and I did not have a long wait at all. I don't even think I had a chance to sit down if I was called into the back. So they were very on time with my appointment schedule as well. It was one of the most pleasant experiences I've had at any type of clinic.

For the very FIRST time, my pulmonologist actually listened to my lungs with her stethoscope! Of course I had to ask her. Why she never did before, I am perplexed. When I asked her this time, she answered, "of course." Why wasn't it standard procedure all along?

There was not enough handicapped parking. I am profoundly handicapped with Spine issues and I had to park way out because at 8:30. The entire handicap parking area was full and I had to park out beyond it and that was way too far for me to walk.
