Patient Reviews

LYNN M - August 19, 2019
As always, I had an amazing experience. The staff are welcoming and friendly and very helpful. Dr. O'Weiss is the best doctor that I've had in my entire life. She truly cares about her patients and has an talent to pick up on nuances that might escape someone else. May Dr. O'Weiss live forever because after her, the mold is broken. I cannot day enough good things about her and I'm constantly referring friends and family to her practice.

The experience was fantastic. Everyone in the office was extremely personable. The office was clean and very nicely put together with a very modest wait time. Dr. Cynthia Harden was a delightful and extremely pleasurable person to be around. She seemed concerned with all of my issues and very open about taking steps forward to resolve the issue. She made me feel calm and comfortable.

It was a great experience ... I was a bit reluctant to go there in the beginning due to some bad reviews but I'm glad that I ignored them. It is well organized and did not have to wait that long. The front desk girls are great and very helpful.
