Parking is the worst and one of the elevators was very jumpy/wobbly.

The experience was great they make it very easy

My entire experience can be summed up in two words, 'First class'. From the beginning to the end, I was treated as a priority and shown respect and given what served as individual attention. Everything was explained to me clearly and this increased my confidence level that I had chosen the correct doctor and staff who cared for their patient as their own. I would highly recommend this doctor.

Dr Patterson has a really GREAT bedside manor! He's straight forward and VERY personable!!! I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone in need of his services!

Excellent experience...considering the situation..
