Doctor was great, but your telephones are ridiculous. Your support staff is horrible and the karen concern that you have for the patients is not displayed but on your telephone recording keeps talking about if we’re in pain… Horrible, horrible company he was amazing but not anybody else.

I would wait for ever on an office visit but I will say 2 hours was quite questionable.
I arrived at 2:30 for a 2:45 appointment and was seen at 4:50.
I think I was lost in the schedule.
