He is differently a very good provider that takes good care of his patients
Dr. Race is an excellent doctor
Great dr.!!!
Dr Race and his staff in my book are tops. He walks in completely relaxed, making you feel completely relaxed and talks about life in general for a few minutes. Then we get to the important things when that’s done. We often go back to what we were talking about before. He wants to know his Patients. I think he should hold a class with other doctors on how to treat their livelihood. So many times we wait in the waiting room and then we wait in the room, andby the time the doctor comes in, he sits down checks the your there , says Goodbye. We’ll see you in six months. I understand they have a lot of work to do, but I understand that we as well might have something we have to do which is just as important.
Felt very safe with provider and staff
