Staff interaction were high quality

I've been seeing Dr. Samala for quite a few years now. She's my go-to person if I have a problem. She's very thorough, very polite, and I would trust her. I would recommend her to friends or family if necessary. I appreciate having her as a doctor.

I felt good about my experience

November 2, 2024

Because there's a lack of nurses and other staff at the facility. It was a very long day. My appointment was overdue the time because they appeared to not have enough staff. Dr. Somalia herself is very good and knowledgeable.
