    How was your appointment with Dr. Sun?

    Jan 24, 2021
    my experience with front desk was amazing, i had insurance issues, i had it but it didn't cross over to the correct dept, i wanted to be seen versus later, i was feeling that bad, they found a date that worked for me, they also called insurance company to confirm issues and resolved them. having a team that starts with the phone call and then appt is key, i'm sure the receptionists are busy on a million calls, but i cldnt tell.
