    Dr. Schuster and All of the clinic staff were wonderful! Even with being a cook employee, this clinic visit far exceeded my expectations. They were prompt and on time but still gave all appropriate information. From child life, to the MA, to the radiology tech, everyone was exceptional! Thank you.
