Patient and professional. The clinic is immaculate. I was in a lot of pain with 3 of my toes and apprehensive about the procedure but Shelly was calming and it wasn't painful like I'd imagine. As soon as it was done the difference was amazing and, instantly, the pain was gone. Great service, thank you!
