They are behind the times and are not up to date with their practice. The owner is cutting costs and has alot of staff turnover also does not go and make an effort to promote her business. The reviews on lots of websites are old and she should probable consolidate and go elsewhere

This provider has so much helpful information available online. They have an impressive website that's easy to use, with forms that you can fill out before your appointment. They also have a great online presence in multiple directories. They explained all the risks and benefits of my treatment options. Everything was explained in detail, all my questions were answered, and I felt a lot better about choosing a treatment plan. I will absolutely return. I had an amazing experience, and they were by far the best I've ever seen. They went out of their way to make me feel special and respected, and were very sympathetic to my situation. I've never seen more kindness and empathy anywhere else. They were absolutely amazing and make others in the same field look like beginners. From patient customer satisfaction survey
