Fine and dandy. I arrived early, completed my paperwork, was brought back to the exam room on time, and was neen promptly. The procedures didn't hurt much. I wasn't thrilled about having to supply my social security number. ByShow more law (a law that everyone has clearly forgotten about), you cannot be compelled to provide your social security number for any reason due to its sensitivity.

My 8 year old son came to get a skin tag removed. When he heard the doctor say needle he became visibly scared. Because he was scared he was crying . The doctor took it off but wwas rude to him. While the assistants told him he did a great job, Doctor told him he didnt. She accused him of kicking her on purpose and he couldn't even see behind him. I simply said if he did it was an accident she wanted to go back and forth about how he didnt do a good job and how he kicked her. Which he didn't. It was very disrespectful and rude.
