We have been going to SCV Quality Care for years after being recommended to them by our friends. The staff is friendly, the doctors are knowledgeable and kind, and they always provide great medical care. There is a reason they have been practicing in this community for so long. It's sometimes difficult to see Dr. Lewis because he is so busy, but the other providers are great. Overall, a great clinic!
