Everything with the visit itself was great, but when it came time for my medication, I had difficulties. They didn’t send the dosage to the pharmacy and they only use a specific pharmacy. The pharmacist and I have both been trying to contact the office for a week now to get the information. I can’t get better if I don’t have the medication. Makes me not want to return if they can’t get something simple like a prescription right or in time.
