    It's hard to find a provider that you can trust and also one that makes sure to be thorough and personal... Only thing that might improve the overall experience is if the staff and Charles took the speed in the office from a 10 down to an 8 or so.

    Providers were all great! Charles, Straum and the x-ray tech were fantastic. The only issue I had was waiting so long. There’s a sign out in the waiting area that says speak to someone at the checkout desk if waiting for longer than 10 minutes however, there was nobody at the desk on the second floor and I was on crutches so going all the way back down to first floor wasn’t as easy.
