    Everything went great, better than expected actually. Was very pleased with Dr. Rice and will like to get my other child scheduled with her now that I see how thorough she is.

    The staff was absolutely amazing. Dr. Rice is one of the best doctors in Columbia, South Carolina, or maybe South Carolina for that matter. It was nothing else that the staff could do for me or my children because she saw multiple children that day. She is one of the best doctors. Please keep her. She's the best.

    This practice is a breathe of fresh air compared to where my children were just patients at. I'm thankful to all care staff, and physicians. Feels so welcoming!

    I don't know if what I have to say has anything to do with what I just asked, but the only complaint that I have is I had to wait over an hour to see the provider. That's it. Otherwise, it was awesome.

    I had to wait an hour after my child's appointment time before my child was seen by the doctor. I felt like this was unprofessional. No one even came into the room to tell us if the doctor was running behind, or what was going on. I had to go out and speak with the receptionist after waiting 45 minutes to see if everything was OK.

    Need to Reduce wait time until check in. I arrived earlier for the appointment but only to get to the clinic to see a huge sign at the waiting area to say the staff was at lunch break and will return at 2 pm which professionally is not right. This is utterly not fair to the patient. Then why schedule me for the appointment at 1.45 when the clinic knows thy will be at lunch break.

    This was the best visit that I've ever had with a provider pertaining to my children. The entire staff was amazing and my doctor, I just enjoyed her professionalism, all the tips and advice, medical advice that she provided and how patient she was with my child. It was very refreshing and I appreciate the whole staff.

    Dr. Rice always treats both of my children with utmost respect. She supports both of my children and they both trust her. She talks to them, not at them. I trust Dr. Rice and do not want my children to be treated by anyone else.
