Very positive!

My physician was excellent in every aspect. The staff did not know the name of the building, when calling to make an appointment at this new facility, only the address. Valet parking was hard to find and $17 for two hours is way out of line compared to other medical center facilities.

Dr. Hafliger listened to me and really heard my concerns. I appreciate her so much and am so thankful to have had her support throughout the years, before and after transplant. I was thrilled she had a cancellation the day that I called for an appointment because I really needed her, and she showed up and delivered exceptional service. Again, so thankful for her!!

The doctors and (INAUDIBLE) physicians are very caring, and very interested in how you feel, and how you go about your day, but they're very caring, and know your medications, and know how to help you, and keep you comfortable. Thank you. God bless you. Amen.
