If I could give them zero or even minus stars I would.. If you ever need to have a medical exam (physical) for immigration purposes DO NOT go to CML. The medical staff was very professional and nice. What I had problems with was the office staff. No one seems to be on the same page. There is no communication between them. First of all, when I was called to come and sign my application I reviewed it. I found many errors , from my DOB to my A#. They had to redo my application because everything was wrong!!! Oh and the lady that "help" me had an attitude Because I kept finding errors every time she came back to show me the final copy. Second, I had every immunization required prior to having the exam. I had proper documentation to prove it and they made copies . I got 4 different calls asking me why I haven't had certain shots done. Once again no communication and they had the proper documentation . Third , and final straw..... I was called to pick up the sealed envelope with the final application and results of lab work. I asked for a personal copy and I was given one . My mistake was that I didn't check that copy before leaving the office. So I took my sealed envelope to my lawyer, came home and checked my copy. I was looking through it and found half of the application to be mine and the other half belonged to some else!!!!!!! So what was in that sealed envelope was Incorrect!!!! HIPPA is getting a call from me Now I have to drive back and forth again to get that taken care off because they can't do their job right!!!!!! DO NOT GO to CML!!! ...read more

As parents, the end of summer marks the beginning of back-to-school preparation. This includes school supply shopping, summer reading, and visits with your child’s doctor and dentist to ensure that he or she is healthy for the upcoming school year. While a visit to the dentist may not seem as important as a physical examination at the doctor, your child’s oral health is in fact crucial to his or her overall health.Dr. Richard Van Gurpunderstands that back-to-school preparations can be stressful on both parents and children and would like to offer some tips on how to ace that dental checkup and stay cavity-free for the whole school year! Cavity Prevention in Children Diligentoral hygiene maintenanceis the strongest foundation for a healthy mouth. As parents, it is your responsibility to instill positive oral health habits in your child from the very beginning. Did you know that over half of children aged 5-9 have at least one cavity? You can prevent your child from becoming a part of this statistic simply by encouraging them to brush for 2 minutes twice daily (2 X 2) and floss once daily. During routine visits to our Charlotte, NC office, we take the time to show ouryoung patientshow to effectively brush and floss to maintain tooth enamel and oral health. You can also improve your child’s oral health by preparing meals that are low in sugar and discouraging in-between meal snacking and sugary drinks- including ghettoes popular sports drinks! Snacking provides more opportunities for the bacteria in your mouth to feed on sugar and produce acids that destroy tooth enamel and causecavities. Tooth decay is an infectious disease and is especially prevalent among school children; tooth-related illnesses account for the loss of 52 million school hours each year. If your child is especially prone to cavities or if a low-sugar diet is not entirely realistic, you may want to talk to Dr. Van Gurp about preventative sealants. This dental procedure uses a resin to fill in the pits and grooves on your molar teeth and makes them a less favorable environment for bacterial invasion. We hope that you found these suggestions helpful and Dr. Van Gurp and his staff would like to wish you a happy and healthy new school year! ...read more
