I had called in a few days before asking to speak to the dr…I got hung up on…and when I did reach someone they said they’d have the dr return the phone call. The appointment was today and no phone call…when I hit to the office I advised the front desk…they said it’s not us it’s the call service.. cop out and they should be fired!! Your office needs to answer calls no ifs ands or buts
