She was kind and took care of my issue. Definitely recommend!
Waited for 30 minutes beyond the time of the appointment. The prescription was not even sent to my pharmacy when I arrived there 90 minutes later. Glad the office was still open. Dr.Azur was very nice & the appointment with her was fine.
Always great!
Dr. Amar was very professional and made me feel very comfortable… she handled my issue very rapidly and was so easy to talk to…
Excellent service
I like Dr Amar a lot, and the staff is friendly. However, I waited 45 minutes to see the doctor today. The waiting room was cold and crowded. I’m very happy that my issue was solved and have no complaints about the service, just the environment and the wait.

Dr. Amar was very caring and professional. I was so scared about the visit and what the outcome might be, she was extremely gentle and very knowledgeable. I look forward to seeing her again. I definitely recommend her. The staff was helpful. Safe practices - limited seating and six feet apart.
