Decent staff, decent doctor. Complete lack of human touch/empathy. Stone cold told me the tests she wanted to run, told me to hold a med for 48h for another test, told me they wanted an ultrasound to check something else. No warmth, no smile, no "we really want to help you feel better". Nothing. Probably an amazing doctor. Will not return.
