Easy to book on ZocDoc and great office experience , front desk was very efficient.
Doctor and medical staff were excellent. The check in reception area needs work.
Verified patient
I was hopeful for this appointment, but unfortunately, I was disappointed by the doctor. I was OK with waiting for him over an hour but was not happy that I felt rushed and dismissed once he met with me. While I was asking him questions, the doctor started walking into the hallway and answering me from the hallway. I had one more question to ask him, but he had already walked away. Clearly, my questions were not that important to him. I felt like I wasted my time. On the upside, the office person who checked me in and the medical assistant were both very nice, professional, and pleasant. I definitely will not come back to this doctor in the future, nor would I recommend him to anyone.
