Very positive! I had been going to a clinic for 10yrs, never was given the time and concern Dr Al gave me! I don't plan on ever seeing anyone else unless he retires! I highly recommend him!!!

Review for Dr. Southall
Dr. Duska is an amazing Doctor. I have her for Stage 3C Ovarian Cancer which she has been treating for the past year. Her bedside manner is warm and we often have some good laughs during my visits. I have great confidence in Dr. Linda Suska and recommend her without reservation.

I received ankle surgery from Dr. Park in May of 2021 & a year later I am basically back to full health. I feel lucky to be running and on my feet again and I wouldn't have been able to do it without Dr. Park.
