Wait time to see Dr extremely long. (my opinion) I was taken back to exam room within 10 minutes, but then waited at least 1/2 an hour to see Dr. I also have a busy schedule & dont appreciate the long wait time.

Dr Karaman is an outstanding physician whom I trust with my life. I really enjoy his straight talk and clarity to help me understand and make critical decisions on my health. He and his staff are truly superior medicals!
