Between waiting room & exam room, I sat for almost 2 1/2 hours before seeing the Dr. He was only in the exam room around 5 minutes after the ridiculously long wait.

Mom loved this guy! She is only 93 and had a big laugh with him. She said shot in the knee was painless and when we returned home, knee felt great.
