I love this clinic. We are always in & out quickly. We see Dr. Douglas & ADORE her. She’s always cheery and acknowledges any concerns I may have but honestly, all the doctors are fantastic! Communication through the portal is very convenient, as well!

Doctor is AWESOME. Staff polite and sweet, but a routine check-up took an hour and a half. Took so long to get nurse in for shots. I would have given five stars, but my daughter's name was spelled wrong in all the data bases that could really spell trouble in an emergency. I'll update when name is corrected. All in in all, I love our doctor and I hope they can speed things up a bit.

I love love love my kids doctor! Dr. Michelle Genet, is the best doctor! As a first time mom with my son I was very nervous & paniced about everything and she was always there explaining everything to me step by step! My son never lets any doctor touch him but when my son goes to see her, he lets her check him! (Very impressive by the way) Now a little sister came along and we are very happy to have her as her doctor also! She's a very outstanding doctor! Also staff is very friendly.

Love the staff here. They are incredibly friendly and experienced. My children never shy away from seeing the doctor, and the staff are always so great with the kids. Even when drawing blood labs they remain calm and friendly, despite the worst behavior of a scared child. Love this place and will continue to keep bringing my kids here for their care.

Service is very good and staff is curteous. I have only one suggetion that all the staff must wear proper dress which cover body completly.Because patients are from different ethnic and religious backgroud, avoid low-cut shirts and above the knee skirts.
