Each patient has the right to express a preference as to which practitioner they would like to see; however, if you require an appointment and your preferred practitioner is not available, you will be offered an appointment with another practitioner. If you would like to see your preferred practitioner you may have to wait longer to schedule an appointment.
We ensure to provide high-quality health services designed around your needs.
