When my appointment was made I was told I would see Dr Coffman. But when I got back to the room in walked her PA I don't feel like he listen to me I don't believe anyone had looked at my paperwork showing why I was there when I would tell him something he would write it down even though i brought a copy of all of my surgeries and procedures he had no clue he told me to go live life to the fullest he said are they anything else i can do for you even though he didn't do a thing for meVery Disappointed

I did NOT see her. But someone else that basically informed me I was wasting his time! Nothing they could do maybe therapy probably not. Wasted my time and I’m still in excruciating pain.

Thought I would see the doctor, but the PA Nick was very good. Wonder when you make an appointment when you ever see the doctor?

Nick is super. Listens well and provides information needed. Answers all my questions. However, waiting time in the exam room is beyond the comfort of the patient. We did not see anyone until over one half hour past appt tine.. that did not include the time previous to the appt. Very uncomfortable especially for those traveling from a distance. I am pleased with Dr Coffman and Nick.
