I initially booked an earlier appoint through ZocDoc. I received a call from the office that afternoon stating they did not have availability for the time slot I booked Online and subsequently rescheduled me for th following week. I called the office to confirm my appointment for the day. I was told I could come "early" as they were "running early" I arrived close to my appointment time and still had to wait over 30 mins to be seen. I felt like the visit lasted longer than necessary as the doctor would leave the room and literally see other patients and then return. Not sure that I'd return.
