Dr Heiden and staff were great!!!!! Front desk NEEDS some training on how to smile and be friendly. Not talk to other employee while patients are standing waiting to be checked in. Only one willing go to help was the millet gal that was doing pt check in and she saw what was going on and said you can come over here. This happened lots last year when I was in with other child too so it hasn’t been a one time thing. Front desk needs to do better!!!! First impressions when entering!

Everyone was friendly and professional. The doctor spent a few minutes talking to me and answering my questions. Though a minor issue, he didn't rush me or make it feel inconsequential.
