My husband have gone here Many times instead of going to the hospital because they can diagnose almost anything; bedside manner is great; check-in does not take long; girls at the front are very nice; and they have "cured" my husband and I from common cold to bronchitis, to bad sinus infections. Personally, I think they are great!
