I was only allowed to address 1 issue of why I was there and when they offered to schedule for another appointment to review my other concerns they gave me an appointment 6 months out. This was a waste of time and extremely inconsiderate based on the fact I had to take work off for the appointment, I will not be returning.
I was happy with the provider. Unfortunately found out on arrival my insurance was not accepted despite having called weeks ahead of time to verify. Would return if provider was in-network.
Gave a diagnosis right away. Prescribed 2 medications. Explained the medications, etc. Answered my questions. Follow up in a month. Will see if medications help skin condition and solve the problem within the month. Don't have any info yet on cost of visit, acceptance of insurance, etc.
Verified patient
