The staff was terrific. The provider was exceptional. He didn’t rush, did a thorough assessment of my symptoms and possible factors, overall health and physical safety. When I left I had a care plan, clear instructions about next steps and a feeling of well-being and relief. The best possible care experience imaginable.
