Very professional and caring doctor
He is an amazing Doctor.
I saw Dr. Li on Friday. At that time I was given another appointment for the following Monday, which is today. I had the first appointment at 7:30 in the morning. Nobody came in to see me until 820 at that time. I was told that he had been in a meeting. He then arrived at the room that I was sitting in and I was asked why I was there since I had just been there the Friday before. I told him that was the appointment that I was given. He did not proceeded with giving me a shot because there was no need. There is something wrong in that office. There is no communication. The appointment I had last month I waited an hour and a half to be seen and that is unacceptable. I really do like dr Li but it is hard to navigate that office.
