They were all so nice! The front desk ladies were super friendly and the medical assistant I saw took her time. Didn’t feel rushed at all. Thanks!

Had a consultation for the Diethylpropion injection and I felt safe and well informed. I like how they asked me about my weight loss goals, rather than giving me their own recommendations. Taia, the technician was very easy to talk to and explained everything well.
