Patient Reviews
Jun 06, 2023
I have seen Dr. Best two times. Dr. Best does something that no other Dr does. Dr. Best sees patients on time or early. For my 2nd appointment which was 11:15 am I arrived at 10:30 am. By 10;45 am I was brought inside. First I saw a Dr. who is part of the team. A few minutes later Dr. Best saw me and we discussed future treatments. I was out of the office within 30 minutes. I wish all physicians treated their patients like Dr. Best.
