I don't normally leave reviews but these ladies deserve the recognition. Everyone I encountered from the front desk, to billing, to all the nurses where TOP NOTCH. This place is very busy but they run it like a well oiled machine. They have every detail down to a science. Everyone was so kind and polite and informative which is so helpful during things like this when most people are understandably nervous. They did a womderful job.

The billing staff is rude and judgemental. Michael wouldn't even discuss the payment plan with me when I said I didn't have 100% of the copay up front. Told me to go to the health department. He was so condescending when I told him I live paycheck to paycheck, as if having $500 extra all the time is typical for most. He finally did talk about the options I had once I mentioned that what he was doing was discrimination. He told me there was no minimum, and then the day of, a different woman is in billing and she says this isn't true.She keeps saying "They like you to pay ___ amount upfront" but ended up going with the amount me and Michael had agreed on. So my guess is she was trying to push me past what I can afford, which is messed up, I have 4 small kids and I just want to get to the bottom of my health problems for their sake. The concerning part about this is she went and brought my receipt with the amount I owed back to the doctor before the procedure. And then they found nothing wrong with me, regardless of the extensive symptoms and pain I'm in. I truly believe they did the smallest amount they could for me because I wasn't paid in full. So now they're charging me for a procedure I didn't even get proper results from. I will say through all of this, nurse Erin was the sweetest person I've met in a long time. I have severe anxiety about medical procedures and she was everything a nurse should be. I have never been treated so kindly in a medical setting. Erin was patient with me and all of my fears. I'll never forget her kindness, especially after what I had gone through in the billing office moments before.

I honestly wish I could give 10 stars for this facility. My experience was exceptional. From the moment I stepped into the office I was treated with the utmost compassion and professionalism. Dr Ramos, and his team, went out of their way to put me at ease and make me as comfortable as possible. Everyone with whom I interacted seemed to really take pleasure in their job. I can't begin to truly express my gratitude and appreciation for the care I was given.

Amazing experience! From scheduling to recovery, everyone I encountered were knowledgeable, friendly and accomodating; best of all, the procedure started on time, I was home in under 2 hours. Dr Brown is awesome!! Compared to a horrific first experience with a different doctor, different place, today's visit should should be everyone's initial experience. I can't give higher than 5 rating but Me & my family are grateful and very satisfied.
