I was very pleased with visit , from the Front Desk to Dr Vapnek. I got right in. I needed an Ultra Sound and she was right there with like only 5 min wait, Dr Vapnek came in immediately after. Asked the questions, recommended further testing and walked me out to the Appointments Desk personally, told her what I needed ,did and done. The whole visit from check in to check was maybe 30-45 mins.max Everyone was very nice, and professional.The best part was the in and out.
