Everyone was professional, knowledgeable, and kind. I was very impressed by the ultrasound technician's mentoring of a student during the procedure. Dr. York listened to me and allayed my concerns.

Yes, there was nothing more that y'all could do. Y'all had answered all the questions. We had been treated with respect, kindness, and got appointments as soon as they were available. We are highly recommending y'all to anybody we know. Thank you.

My visit was excellent. I cannot think of a thing that might have improved it. Unless if they had provided limo service to the facility and back home. LOL

I felt very comfortable with how I was cared for and I really liked Dr. York I usually don't feel comfortable with a new doctor but I just felt like I was home.
- 1 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/23/2025
Well, first of all, to instill more trust, the first thing the doctor asked me when he came into the office was, what was I doing there? Second of all, he gave me contradictory information on the prognosis, and that would have been a good way to start.

None other support. Much respect and trust
