Why we are considered a
“concierge practice.”
We refer to ourselves as a “concierge practice” because of
the extraordinary level of personalized care we provide.
Communication begins with your first call to our office. Your
call will be answered by a “real person”, not an automated
response or a remote call center with a long hold time. A
friendly member of our team, right here in our Fort Lauderdale
office, will answer your questions, book your appointment and
know you by name from that point onward.
When you arrive at our office, you will not walk into a packed
waiting room and we make every effort to honor timely
appointments. Patients are provided with a brochure about
our practice, available in English and Spanish. My team is
made up of individuals who have all worked with me for many
years and are all fully engaged with your care. Their focus is
to make every part of your experience with our practice as
smooth, safe and worry-free as possible.
