Everyone in the office is always so kind. Dr Balica always comes in with a smile on her face and answers all of my concerns. I came in for a Surgery Clearance and I was in and out.

Dr. Balica was extremely kind and caring. I was late for my appointment because directions to the office were not very efficient. She managed to see me anyway and was very considerate. She is very knowledgeable about her field. I appreciated her care and wisdom.
