I scheduled an appointment with the TriHealth Priority Care in Mason on 1/20/2020. Everyone was courteous and thoughtful, from the registration desk, to the nurse, to the doctor, Dr. Waller. They answered all my questions and I was prescribed some meds for my asthma issue. I truly appreciate that I could get in to see a doctor on short notice, as I couldn't get in to see my pcp for a week. I recommend this location, the staff and Dr. Waller. Thank you!

I've been there twice and was treated promptly, precisely and professionally. The NP's actually cared about what was going on w/ me medically and listened to what I had to say. I will return to the Kroger Little Clinic location when necessary.
