While the vast majority of reviews are exceptionally positive, the very few critical comments that exist tend to mention isolated incidents of miscommunication or scheduling difficulties.
Given the overwhelmingly positive feedback on staff compassion and program effectiveness, these appear to be exceptions rather than the norm for this location.
