We discussed my latest joint problem. Kiley fully discussed the the issue including all possible relevant details including diet, exercise, other meds and possible mitigating factors. The discussion was pleasant and helpful. She changed my medication dose and said to call after several weeks if not helpful. I left feeling very happy.

He really cares about his patients. Takes a very thorough medical history. And discusses all of your symptoms and treatment options with you.
Diagnostic , X-rays, bloodwork all done in the same office and the same visit. All of the nurses are very good as well.
