Raul V. • April 14, 2026

The doctor and the staff were all very helpful, but I did wait almost 1:30-2 hours just to go inside to see the doctor. It was maybe a busy day, but everything apart from the waiting was good.

Riviere A. • March 25, 2026

I’m a patient in the clinic but will not come back, came for a walk in which they approved but when i came in the technician and the Doctor was surprised and rude , that i came in for a red eye, telling me in short that my problem is nothing compared to others and that they are very busy . I don’t think i deserve this treatment, i waited for 2 hours which i don’t mind but giving me a nasty attitude is not acceptable, and the doctor forgot to send my prescription coz she was in a rush to finish seeing me…

Wona Marie M. • March 18, 2026
