This was the best experience! We came for a sport physical. And there was no wait time. The check-in was superior. Quick, friendly, uplifting and overall great! The nurse was quick, friendly, warm and welcoming. The nurse practitioner was very friendly and we were in and out in about 40 minutes! I highly recommend this facility.
