Could not be better!!!
Dr. Semenov is very, personable, timely, knowledgeable, we are in good hands with him. I wish all doctors were like him.
I was EXTREMELY appreciative that the office staff helped me get in so quickly to get a spot looked at.
My Doctor apologized for being a bit late and it was no big deal. He was thorough and efficient and listened as I was asking and pointing out things. I like his style.
Dr. Semenov and his staff ALWAYS are courteous and professional and provide the best care during my visit.
The Dr was a very good listener , very kind, very understanding . I appreciated the time he gave . I would highly recommend him to my friends
The provider saw me only a few minutes after I had arrived for the appointment. The examination was very thorough. The doctor was familiar with my previous health history.
Excellent communications, including with the medical students, and assistants.
Yeah, I was very happy with my visit and for the care that I received.
