    I am not a fan of prisma at all and have little to no trust in them. We are stuck using them. However this Dr and the nurses have made it better.... I love this Dr and am so very grateful to have her and my PCP and her nurses. I sincerely appreciate thr knowledge paired witb genuine kindness.

    No improvement needed. I'm delighted with the care I receive from Prisma facilities, and, in particular, Dr. Pryby. She is always very patient , listens to me carefully, and takes as much time as needed. I feel very fortunate to be her patient!
