Dr Alsamari was very thorough and acknowledged that it is a lot to process. She was patient, kind and spoke with complete care and compassion.

*Dr. Alsamarai is the best, most patient, knowledgeable doctor I have ever had.

Think its disgusting bill for use of office space. I will continue to only pay my co-pay as per contract with my insurance company

I believe both Dr. Alsamarai and Dr Katigbak have my best interest in mind. Both take the time to listen to any questions and concerns that I have had at the time of service.

Dr Alsamarai was very pleasant, informative and took her time explaining the issue at hand. I certainly would recommend her to anyone.

The front office staff were professional and the Doctor was friendly, knowledgeable and efficient.

Short wait to see Dr Alsamarai and she took the time to explain everything and the plan going forward.
