excellent service
The doctor nd office staff were fabulous!
Dr Uknis was actually a second opinion after a horrible experience with another doctor. She was a very good listener and addressed all of my concerns. She has told me that she is available for any questions I may have and when I emailed her through the app she responded in an appropriate amount of time. I am quite pleased with her and the course of treatment that she is recommending for me. I am so thankful that I found her!
Dr Uknis takes very good care of my rheumatoid arthritis condition
I was given the wrong dosage of the prescription the dr. ordered. The dr. said I was getting 10 mg. but they prescribed 5 mg. which was incorrect per our discussion in the office.
good experiencee
very knowledgeable about my condition
I will never go to this doctor again.
Dr. Uknis has a wide knowledge regarding healthcare and is generous in sharing & instructing. A model for others to follow.
Dr. Uknis is a rock star; I came to her for a second opinion; should have started with her.
Dr. Uknis was thorough, thoughtful and listened to any questions. This was my first appointment with her and it could not have been a more pleasant experience with the doctor. Highly recommended if anyone needs rheumatoid arthritis treatment
