April Susmarski2024-08-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m a new patient and the care I received there from all of the staff really impressed me. I couldn’t be happier with Dr. Mike and I cannot recommend him enough! His review of my (and my family’s) medical history was so in depth that we actually covered more than I ever have with my regular doctor. He went above and beyond to say the least. His approach is preventative, instead of just waiting for an issue to arise. Needless to say, I know I’m in good hands there.
