I was looking for a new PCP due to moving and I am glad that I found it. The office waiting room is relatively small but the turnover is quick. I love that people are working efficiently. Every staff is friendly and try to answer questions as much as they can. Doctor Foster is very kind and professional. She is a great listener that makes people feel relaxed and would like to speak out any concern. I got immediate feedback and advice about my exam results once the report is released. Highly recommend! I will definitely bring my other family members here as well.
