This has been the best medical care I have ever received. During my appointments I always receive very attentive, compassionate and effective care. Dr Attema is professional, extremely knowledgeable and friendly. My wife and I both come here and we would recommend this Dr to everyone! This has become a important piece of my overall physical health and I've felt sharper and more energetic since starting with Dr Attema.
