It was a fantastic visit, both check-in and Dr. Bae's arrival were very prompt. Dr. Bae was extremely pleasant and thoughtful about my concerns, patiently answered my questions and was very sympathetic about my specific situation. I would absolutely recommend him to family and friends. One comment (not about Dr. Bae) about the survey - the question ("How likely are you to recommend this care provider") had responses ranging from "very poor" to "very good." I think the responses should have been "very unlikely" to "very likely" (I'm very likely to recommend Dr. Bae (I already have to my wife)).
The appointment was very easy to make and the Drs, nurses and staff very prompt to ensure that I was seen and my problem was addressed and corrected.
