Patient Reviews
Feb 29, 2016
Dr Root was great with my teenage son and addressed some health concerns that had been overlooked by his previous doctor. He was very thorough and talked through everything with both of us. We have seen several physicians in this practice and always feel very well cared for. The office staff is on top of things and the wait time is minimal!
