That everyone from the receptionist to the nurse and the doctor was very nice and made us feel welcome. They were all polite and got us in right away and took care of our needs and we didn't have to wait but maybe 5 minutes or so until we got called back and only waited a few minutes for the doctor. So it was a great experience and we felt very comfortable being there.
