The wait was unusally long. I understand emergencies happen. It would be helpful if the staff would mention the delay when you sign in for your appt. Before you pay your co-pay and you have the option of re-scheduleing. If they had only mention the delay to the other 4 people before me, they may have stayed and not complain. As the staff to put themselves in the customer's place. Isn't always nicer when you know there is a slight problem and ask to be patient. Everyone knows how pleasant Dr. Callender is, and if there is a problem. WE WILL WAIT. You must communicate with the patients. Dr "" is the BEST

Dr. Callender seemed very attentive and knowledgeable. She got straight to the point. The office staff were courteous. I had the first appointment of the day, and they were a bit late opening up. So I did have to wait a few minutes before the office was opened.

Dr. Callender was great! Really nice, helpful, and knew exactly what I needed. Unfortunately, I arrived half an hour before my appointment to fill out the paperwork; and I had to wait another hour after my appointment time, making my total wait time an hour and a half. That's way longer than the time I spent actually seeing her!

The staff was friendly and professional. They made me feel like I was a priority. Dr. Callender was knowledgeable and explanatory, yet succinct. In addition, she was not only concerned about clearing up the physical manifestation of the condition, but also finding the root cause.

The visit was great. She was able to diagnose me and treat me during the same visit. The wait time in the office was my fault, I did not have all of my insurance information. Dr. Callender and staff were very personable. I will return

I believe wait time was associated with rescheduling of patients due to the unexpected earthquake on 8/23. Not a problem. Such a very professional atmosphere.
