5 stars for Dr Scherer. She is an excellent physician. She puts you at ease, is thorough, and listens. I would’ve given 5 stars but the front desk is lacking in people skills. I was sent an online check-in form in which I spent 40 minutes completing only to be told it was useless and I had to complete the same information on paper.
