Terrible place to work and get treatment. Trish does not deserve her job. From these reviews that say her name, it is apparent that I'm not the only one who feels this way!

Zero Star - Very rude and unprofessional. Since the pandemic I have been using virtual appointments through Cigna MDlive, and have loved until speaking with Dr Nana Korsah today. She was argumentative, rude and did not care about me one bit, she hung up in my face. I have reported her to Cigna and hope no one ever experiences an encounter as this. Stay away from this doctor!

Medical staff friendly and knows how to keep the patients moving. I discovered they offer transportation from and back to my fathers rehab facility.
