I enjoy going to a doctor who cares about their patients, I’ve never had a doctor check on me with a personal phone call after a visit to see how I’m doing, but here the doctor has several times and I greatly appreciate it! Also, you get the same treatment from all the staff! Thanks Dr. Bias for all y’all do in your busy profession!
