"I would give Dr Boston a 5. I really liked him and he actually listened. I liked his nurse too. But the wait was too long. My appointment was at 2:30 and I didn’t see him until after 4:15."

— WebMD (Dr. Dakota Boston)

"Been a diabetic for nearly 25 years, all my previous Endocrinologist’s were never able to give me the total care that Dr Chico has... If you want the very best personal care and tailored treatments, then look no further."

— WebMD (Dr. Michelle Chico)

"My visit with Dr. Pokhrel was awful, he didn’t listen to all of my symptoms... needless to say I fired him as my doctor."
