Was a pleasant experience. Everyone was very nice, informative and willing to answer any questions. The nurse that took my vitals, the PA that did my skin check, and Dr. Mercado were very thorough with my skin exam and explained to me what the issues I wanted checked were. They did this in a very friendly, professional and comfortable manner. Dr. Mercado and her team did a great job. I was very pleased with the caring way they took care of me.

Great care

Everyone is nice and attentive. I feel that they actually care about the patients and that says a lot. They listen and they are willing to fight insurance companies who have made it harder for working people to get what is needed but the Drs fight for our rights. A+

This was the best experience I have ever had at a Dr appointment. It was quick and comprehensive. The only thing I would change would be the amount of people in the room. 5 people in the room is a lot at one time.

The ladies at the front desk where I checked in and out were rude. As I walked up to the counter to check out I stood at the counter for a few minutes before the two ladies addressed me. They were conversing about something outside of work. None of the ladies that work the counter are never pleasant. It's like they are not happy with their job. I don't ever get a greeting but on the other hand when I come around the corner every one is very pleasant. When I checked in I wasn't greeted.
