Friday Closes at 2 p.m.; Closed Weekends

Wednesday is the one late day, with the office open until 7 pm. The other weekdays it closes by 4 pm and it is closed weekends, so it is harder to fit around a 9-to-5. Five reviews mention a kind, sweet manner, and five anxious patients say they felt at ease.
