In dealing with Dr. Oliveria, the ease of getting the care I need is excellent. This is not always the case when I have had other appointments at the CC. I hope to have more of the positive experiences such as the ones with Doctor Oliveria's staff. Including but not limited too his nurse assistant John(excellent at checking the patient portal. Not all the nurse assistants in this department do the same), the schedulers (once the answer, not to include holding time to connect) and of course the doctor himself.
