With 1-2 hour wait time. You would expect a proper consultation. I won't deny Dr Anthes is very Humble but that's not the only thing we need. He doesn't give any explanation if you ask him questions and will walk you out of the door which is like an insult. He forgot to ask about me previous history so false diagnosis until he referred to a specialist. Also once I had consulted Dr Sicheri. After listening to my problem she directly referred me to a specialist. But atleast she should tell/talk to me about the general things related to the problem and prevention before I visit the specialist in

I am giving one star because Dr Anthes is wonderful and so are the staff. Unfortunately I went on a Friday and Dr. Dolores was there. Soon as I got in I understood why the wait room was empty. She was so cold and lacked any compassion. Did not even make an effort to see what my issue was. She asked me more about my personal life than my medical history. Whole appointment finished within 5 minutes and I left wondering how in the world she was even licensed. Do go somewhere else if she is there. Totally not worth your time.

Please dont waste your time if dr. Dolores is there. She is ignorant at most unprofessional. Did not even ask me about my medical history and paid least attention when i was describing them. At my fourth visit, while explaining my concerns, she cut me off saying I cant help you with anything.
Dr. Anthes is a wonderful doctor but unfortunately i got this lady the past 4 times. I cant imagine anything positive coming out of a visit if its her seeing you. My advice is , check at the counter and if its her, RUN.

This place is getting a 2 star review from me. The front desk staff was amazing, she was nice & friendly and if it was just her it would be 5 stars. The Doctor on the other hand... She was rude for absolutely no reason. I usually use Good Doctors but unfortunately they do not have the ability to order MRI's in town. So I came to this walk in with all my ultrasound paperwork, emails & referral/prescription for physio. The e-mail & ultrasound paperwork states that I need an MRI to confirm my injury before scheduling physio. This doctor just kept telling me I need physio and made it an absolute
