it was great but I didn't understand why I still had to fill out the information that I already had filled out online. I thought that online it said save time by signing in now and I did but I still had to fill it out once I got there.

I really liked the Dr . There was some problem being short staffed so I had a longer than usual wait which was two hrs and 30 mins . Needless to say that was tough . The staff was apologetic and said this was not normal. I was pleased overall and will return .
