Super, as usual.
Thanks for getting me in in time to go to a funeral.
Waiting time today was longer than any prior appointments.

Dr. Ysasaga is very knowledgeable, good at explaining procedures and my options, aware of insurance and costs, and has a friendly approach which I value. I’m very glad to have him as my doctor.

Dr Eddy gets 5 stars for the actual appt-he is the very best and I am fortunate to be a patient…..,but 2 things….#1 Several of us in D3 I think it was overheard the girl taking people back to the room get very snappy to a patient in a wheelchair….#2 I waited 4 hours for my appt….then I had a 2 hour drive home. It wasn’t like this was the first time I’ve waited hours but today it was difficult. I know you overbook because there is such a demand for Dr eddys services…. He is booked several weeks ahead and patients would have to wait even longer to see him if he saw less patients each day….just saying for me today it was difficult waiting.
