— LocalityBiz patient review"No communication at this office, and it appears no one does their job and contact you when your contacts come in. If I could give 0 stars I would."
— LocalityBiz patient review (Eye Care department)"I feel that it is a well-oiled machine... They know why I am there without a computer, since everybody knows what is going on with me, all staff. Everybody is on the same page, for a level of healthcare I had never experienced."
