I have continued to see them ever since.The other day, I had an issue that I needed help with quickly. I see Dr. Cahill but she was not available so I was able to see Dr. Bernsen.
He was good, assessed the issue quickly and provided the help I needed. I had another question the next day and his NP called me and did a very good job assessing the problem and helping me get over the counter meds that I needed.
I would never go anywhere else for my care!
