Doctor is usually pleasant, office staff are very rude and disrespectful. They lack professional Medical conduct and could benefit from professional development training.

Dr. Ferguson is nice. He listen to you patiently but his front end staff is not very courteous. When you get there does not even say hello or acknowledge you. Very cold attitude. Not too flexible in scheduling appointment.
