"Sorry excuse of a medical clinic. Horrible communication, lack of follow up. Dissatisfied patient after a few months... I have to continually call to follow up to try to see if they have submitted referrals I need... Each time, I call, I get excuses and the run around."
— LocalityBiz review"Clean clinic. Dr. Fernandez is nice. She listens to what you have to say and your concerns. The people at the front office are helpful. Though it does take a while for them to answer the phone sometimes."
