These guys are great. Doc L is very friendly and seems to know both medicine and the billing codes (... a huge plus! I can't stand medicine's more typical non transparent billing). Other folks at the office are top too. The chill beanie hipster dude is an absolute pro on the machines; and the half asian glasses guy is great at kindly running through all the options.
