I drove an hour to get to the office only to find out that the Dr wasn’t in and they didn’t have the equipment to proceed with the tear care procedure. They said we called you 20 minutes ago. Well I don’t answer my phone when I am driving and what good does that do? I should have been called first thing in the am.
