Thank you for the kind words! I love what I can do to help others live a better and happier life! -Dr Gurgen
We unfortunately were never notified of any these complaints, this being the 1st one of this nature in over 10 years in practice. We would have immediately addressed any concerns you may have had.
Thank you for the positive review on our providers! I am sorry for your bad experience with the billing side of the practice. We were transitioning our billing companies during this month and caused a minor delay.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
