Thank you for your review, Jasmine Renee "I feel like the only reason I keep my children at this facility is because of “ Cristy”! If she moved offices I would move with her. Every time you call this office it’s a different person speaking, they don’t know what’s going on, they don’t know what they’re doing. They cancel the day before your appointment or even the same day and expect you to accommodate them, but the minute you’re late or need to reschedule because of circumstances you have to pay a fee to be seen by the provider. You get hung up on, call back it’s a whole different person answering the phone and now I’m having to repeat everything all over again to a different person within just 2 seconds of being hung up on. Every other month it’s new people being trained, in and out the establishment, and it’s never just the same faces or people. "TWO STAR
