In patients' words

"Nursing staff and receptionists are friendly, knowledgeable, and very skilled. I would not recommend going here though as I was a pregnancy patient of Dr. Scott's and they 'let her go' with short notice... My healthcare was delayed by a month. I felt lack of concern coming from the administration for my condition."

LocalityBiz Review

"It has lead to a lack of consistency of care for the majority of female patients and has, literally overnight, completely destroyed what we have worked so hard to build over the past eight years."
