“It's very efficient and has very little wait time. We've enjoyed working with Jocelyn Guggenheim. The assistant who came to give vaccines was very great in our last visit as well.”

“I was late to the appointment and still found a way to see you. I was 10 minutes late. The check-in staff knew I was sick and still made it happen. I got my glasses, so everything was fast and good. Everything that I said, I liked.”

“Dr. Dal Molin is excellent at what she does, explains everything that she is doing, and recommends the care that I need. I think that the staff and the care I get from Dr. Dal Molin are excellent and would recommend the office to anybody that asks; they are just very caring people there. I just like the staff there a lot.”

“We are an elderly couple who have been patients at the SBCHC clinic for many years. Dr. Saxena stands out for correctness and creating a warm and very communicative doctor-patient environment. The doctor listens very attentively and calmly to everything you tell him. Simplicity in communication, diagnosis, and continuous patient condition monitoring make this doctor stand out from the rest.”
Dr. Saxena

“I feel that it is a well-oiled machine, with Dr. Brout at South Boston. I just can't say enough good things! They know why I am there without a computer, since everybody knows what is going on with me, all staff. Everybody is on the same page, for a level of healthcare I had never experienced.”
