I had a good visit, but was told I would get a call with test results within 12 hours. It's been more than 24 and i haven't heard from the clinic.

I still left the clinic in pain with no answer or solution...all I did was take a bunch of tests and got sent home. So I've still got the same pain I came in looking for help with

The office receptionist and the doctors clerk that showed me to the room did an outstanding job of communication and making me feel comfortable at the appointment. Also the doctor asked good questions and we had a good discussion concerning my health and improvements that I could make.
