- 5.0Aug 26, 2025Never even had to sit in the waiting room, they took me right away. As I left the X-ray room the doctor was already reviewing my X-rays. He has helped me before and remembered how I had responded to previous treatments. He explained everything thoroughly and listened to my questions. All doctors visits should be like this.
