Dr. Anderson is great. He does his research into the chart before he comes into the room. He has great suggestions and does a thorough exam. The phlebotomist was professional, friendly, and made sure I was comfortable. She identified me with name and date of birth and had me verify spelling when she labeled my tubes. The Rad techs were friendly and professional as well. The report for my x ray was complete before I even hit the parking lot. I was in and out in less than 1.5 hours. Thanks for everything!
