Dr Asfaw is very kind and always very conscientious. He goes over my lab results with me with explanation of where improvements are needed and what has improved. He answers all questions thoroughly. I have confidence that he pays close attention to helping me improve my health. He's a great doctor. His staff, both nursing and front desk, are always kind and friendly.

Nurse Brittany is excellent. She takes an interest in you and remembers you from visit to visit. If I have any issue I write to her in the portal and she immediately solves my issues. Dr. A always takes an interest in my health and answers all my questions.
