I wanted to send a special thank you and so much gratitude to this practice. I sent my mother here for something urgent and typically I accompany her to all her appointments but I couldn't make it to this one and I am so relieved I left her in great hands. Special shout out to Julissa (I hope I spelled your name right) for translating for my mother. Thank you to everyone who comforted her. I highly recommend this practice. They are thorough and professionals through and through. If you are Spanish speaking don't worry they will work around that.
