They changed my appointment from 11:40 am to 1:40 am. Nobody from the office called me to inform me that change. I had to drive an hour to reach the office for an appointment for my 18 month old boy for then had a 15 minutes appointment with not too much information. This was my second appointment there and it seems like he was rushing up.
