My appointment pre paperwork was done prior to the appointment online which took around 45 minutes to complete.upon arriving and meeting with therapist we spent an hour going over the paperwork I filled out online prior. Several times I tried to insert the purpose of the appointment but it seemed to go back to discussing the online entries and not the reason for the appointment. That's pretty much an hour and half travel time with an hour of time reaching no goal or conclusion, discussion of reason for the appointment. Not really sure what you want me to say or state I was also told that return visit would be with someone else and that thier office would reach out to schedule that which 9 days later has not happened.
