Patient Satisfaction
Trustpilot is an independent third-party review site.
As of January, 2019
It was awesome from the time I made an
appointment to speaking with the doctor it only
took about 15 minutes total. It’s very
convenient especially so you don’t have to
take off work”
DemetriaJanuary, 2019

bladder infection hit. I did not have to wait
more than 5 minutes to get a call from the Dr.
and within an hour my antibiotic was ready
to be picked up!”
