Team
What patients say
Vibe: spa-like
The practice receives overwhelming praise (12/14 five-star reviews) for Dr. Amos's clinical excellence, honesty, and personable approach combined with a beautiful, clean spa-like environment and exceptional staff service. However, two recent one-star reviews describe serious billing and service delivery problems—specifically aggressive consultation charges and poor-quality repairs—that contradict the overwhelmingly positive narrative and suggest potential billing practice concerns.
