“I had a wonderful visit at Good Neighbor Healthcare Center and even though it was only my second visit, they remembered me by name!  I am a hard person to draw blood from but they listened to me and were able to draw blood on the first try.  I am glad they are here to provide care.”  

I am very grateful and happy with Ms. Sonia's attention and service.  She is very efficient and treats me very wellI am very happy with her every time I visit.  She has a special way of treating every person.  I will be changing my child's dentist to this clinic because of the good service and treatment.
