Dr Geiger always makes you feel like he has all the time in the world for you. He's always making sure you don't have more questions and that you understand everything. He and his office staff have always made me feel comfortable and that my condition will be addressed to their best ability. Dr Geiger personally called me after I submitted a message through the portal to answer a question for me. This alone is huge, it was so nice to talk to him and not have to have the nurse play the middle man. The nurses however have always been very prompt to respond to my messages and have been great with scheduling and any other needs I have had. I am so grateful for this office and all that Dr Geiger and Tonna McCutcheon have done for me.
