The staff is just so amazingly rude and abusive and have extremely poor English and skills are very sloppy and don’t care about the paperwork. They’ve lost the forms and I’ve been waiting for three days to get my medication and of course I’ve run out and they are still playing games. This office is a bunch of game players. I’m very very rude.
