I sat and waited for my appointment, only to be informed (after a half an hour of waiting) that my appointment would not be taking place. I feel extremely frustrated and let down.

I had an appointment with Dr. Iona Enescu at 2 PM today, December 11, 2025. My iPad was set up. I clicked on the link only to find out that it was canceled because I was out of her age range. How could she not have told me that or emailed me when I booked the appointment days ago? So unprofessional and unconscionable that a doctor would do this
