Patient reviews
"Speaks clearly and ensures all information is easy to understand."
"Maintains a calm and composed demeanor at all times."
That was impressive and rare for a doctor to pay much attention to tiny details.
"I was in Dr. Ronald's clinic for one issue, which he quickly resolved, but I had another unrelated symptom, so he did a full assessment and took it seriously, despite me not even thinking it was worth checking. That was impressive and rare for a doctor to pay much attention to tiny details."
He saved my husband's life.
"My husband and I had covid in January. Our physician was not returning our calls. My husband was very sick and I was desperate. Luckily, I got Dr. Primas's name from a friend. He saved my husband's life."
It was a breeze, and I'm really happy with the treatment plan we devised together.
"I’m disabled and getting anywhere in the city can be exhausting and dangerous for me. Dr. Primas was available for the very next day even when I called the evening before. It was a breeze, and I'm really happy with the treatment plan we devised together."
