Review for Dr. Ahmadi
The staff was uncaring from the moment I got there till the moment I left. Nobody assisted me or asked how I was doing. I have trouble getting off the table after the horrific procedure, and no one offered to help me up or anything I went home, crying the whole way I would never set foot there...

Review for Dr. Balduyeu
Dr. Hartman saved my life when few doctors would treat my illness. Without her patience and teachings, I would not have learned the tools I needed to get well. She is a rare practitioner, indeed. If you are fortunate to travel to see her, don't miss the chance.
