As a self pay, I appreciate how they are an affordable option, especially against what I refer to as "the evil empire" LVHN rip off network. In addition, Dr Pickle and his staff helped me through an interesting and complicated diagnosis over the past decade. Bottom line: They were recommended by multiple friends 8 years ago, and I've recommended them many times since.
