The computer system reconfirmed the appointment numerous times for 9:30. I arrived at the office and was told it was now at 10:00 and then was not seen until 10:30. While i understand the the doctor is busy and his time is valuable, so is mine. the situation was not helped by the receptionist's attitude in telling me that if i didn't want to wait just let her know. Helpful and friendly doctor, hopeless and rude administration.
Knowledgeable caring and not rushed. Answered my questions in detail. I trust him with my treatment.
