Still recovering after meniscus 11 weeks post surgery. Very slow process and billing has been a mess. Kristina is amazing and easier to communicate with.

Review for Dr. Pizinger

Didn’t do any type of hands on assessment for a new patient physical. Didn’t order meds which was the whole purpose of the visit. Had to do a tele health visit shortly after so he would order my meds and then didn’t get it right.

Review for Dr. Fitzgerald

Dr. Lawson is excellent. He listens, is very thorough & doesn't rush. He's friendly, easy to talk with, & clearly knows what he's doing. He explains everything very well. His staff is great too.
