Wait was 2 1/2 hours…too long. Everything else was perfect!

Came from Florida to meet with Dr Dorchak for a consultation; however, There isn’t enough digitally competent staff to properly support Dr. Dorchak.
I confirmed the week prior that all my records had transferred from another Orthopedic surgeon to include, X-rays, MRI, CT scan & reports but, the staff was unable to locate them at the time of the appointment. Had to have them resent & scrambled to piece together images from pictures & a disk. Where was Medical records and a liaison to support doctors especially for out of town patients?
