ZOCDOC sent me a confirmation a month ago that the appointment was booked. I responded three times online that I was to be expected. ZOCDOC couldn't reach my phone once and didn't book me. A VERY shoddy work portal. I wasted travel time, work expense and I had to return the next day since I had expected to be seen when I was told I was booked by ZOCDOC May 3rd, one month prior. Very, very disappointed with your performance and it had nothing to do with Dr Shama
