Dr Derrer was attentive to my illness and worked with me to find and tell me what he was prescribing. The Doctor was very nice. Maybe hiring more doctors/NAs would be beneficial. There were 19 patients in front of me. I waited 2 hours...NOT GOOD. Do better!!!

Scheduled appointment and the doctor didn't show for an hour after my appointment time. What is an appointment for? I've got better response as a walk-in

The nurses should be aware that patients can hear what they are saying while they are at their desk. My room was across from that desk. That is all I need to say.

Dr. Derrer ordered x-Ray but I refused to have it, so I didn't take it. So he referred me to a pain clinic. The nurse whom checked me in wore gloves and a mask so no need to was hands. A great place to have in our community when you need medical help. Keep up the good work!!

The wait time is ridiculous. I was there 3 hours to be seen. Maybe there needs to be more than one Dr available for people to see

Waiting room is small. One patient mentioned to the front desk that they had COVID so I was concerned I would contract the virus after waiting in close quarters for 45 minutes.

Every staff member was outstanding, courteous, kind, understood my problem, understood that this huge box of blinds that was a 7272 blinds fell on my left arm and my wrist and I was in a lot of pain. They had compassion for me. They were caring, loving, and they did everything absolutely wonderful. I would recommend them for everything. The staff members were terrific. Thank you for having such a beautiful, wonderful staff there and the nurses outstanding.

My main concern is that I waited a very long time before being discharged. I finally stuck my head out of the room and asked about the delay as there was a lot of talking amongst the staff. They said they were working on it. Finally shortly after I asked they came to discharge me. I believe this could have been expedited.
