Very nice doctor and staff. Doctor seemed concerned about figuring out what my problem was. After feeling miserable for 5 days prior to my visit, I started feeling better shortly after my visit. Was impressed with the short wait time. I would definitely recommend to my family and friends. Thank you CHUC.
