I was promptly and politely greeted as soon as I entered the building. I was called back right around my appointment time. I waited less than five minutes before Dr. Hanson entered, thoroughly inspected my skin, assured me that all was well after taking care of a few spots, and I left with my next check up appointment. All of this occurred in less than 30 minutes, and was a polite, pleasant, efficient, and reassuring experience.
