How likely are you to recommend Dr. Watkins?
My Appointment was at 10:30 but didn't get into a a room until about 11:45. There were a lot of people there at the time. Other than the wait, the front desk person was doing about 10,000 tasks, definitely commend her on that. The attitude of the assistant who guided us to the room was very happy, cheerful, and enthusiastic. Dr. Watkins was one of the best doctors I have seen in a while. He was so very informative and helpful but, very fast. Definitely returning is any more issues.
