Patient Reviews & Comments
All patient satisfaction ratings are submitted by patients who have confirmed email addresses. After their visit, these patients receive a survey within a few days. They complete the survey online, providing feedback on specific aspects of their care. We use this feedback to improve our services and ensure each patient has an exceptional experience. To respect our patients' time, we only send out surveys once every 90 days, regardless of how many times they visit the clinic.
