The wait time was less than the last time I was there. The entire process went quite smoothly. The entire staff worked together efficiently really knew what they were doing. This visit went remarkably well. Thank you for every staff person at Perllmutter Syl
Excellent service from the staff and Dr. Z.!
They listen to your concerns.
Appointments consistely run over an hour behind schedule. This place has no respect for your time. I will not be returning.
