Dr. Wilder took his time explaining things with me, checked on prescriptions approved by insurance before prescribing. Good, cheerful attitude.

I was in due to an unexpected need. Dr. Wilder took the necessary steps to diagnose my eye problem, explain it to me thoroughly, and prescribe the Rx. Once again they showed professionalism and competence. Thank y'all for what y'all do.

Dr. Wilder is wonderful, however the wait was unacceptable. My appt time 10:15. I arrived at 10:05 and checked in on arrival. However I had nothing done till 11. Then after screening I sat in waiting room till dr seen, finished at noon. I was told they were short staffed and there were 2 drs there. Please meep in mind that the patient’s time is valuable too.
