    Finding the building was a little tricky as I thought I was entering a school. When I called to ask for guidance, an answering service needed personal information and would have had to call me back which would have made me late to my appointment. It would be helpful to provide instructions or clearer signage.

    Dr. Ciecko, Rufina Eframi and the doctor that took my hearing test are exceptional. They are more then health providers and ENT and Allergy should be glad that they are aboard. I wish my other health care providers were like them.
