Excellent as usual.
Dec 11, 2025
Dr. Boak is a very good doctor. I've had him for over 20 years. The time wait, you don't get exactly what you need. If you're scheduled for 2 o'clock, you don't get a 2 o'clock appointment. You get 2:15, 2:20 if there's a couple of people there. You know, it's like it doesn't matter. Why would they make you give you an appointment for 2 o'clock if you can't go in at 2 o'clock? You know, I could see 2:15, but when it goes on to like a half hour, it's annoying. Other than that, Dr. Boak's a great doctor, so thank you.
Dec 10, 2025
Dr. Boak is a wonderful doctor. He listens carefully. He explains everything. He's very smart. And we've been with him for maybe 40 years, and he is wonderful. And that's all I have to say.
