I intentionally scheduled an appointment for the morning time, 10am to avoid waiting time. I sat out in the lobby for 1 hour and 15 minutes. I was then called back and sat in the examining room for an additional 45 minutes before I saw the doctor. Two hours after my scheduled time!!! The office was open at 8am, My appointment was at 10am. How do you get backed up 2 hours behind schedule when you've only been open for 2 hours???? Bad scheduling! At 11:15am I met a friend in the lobby that had an 11am appointment. She was livid when she found out mine was at 10am and I still hadn't been called. Other in the lobby expressed the same disgust. This is a total disregard for patients. Our time is valuable too. Why schedule patients so close together? $$$$$$$ first patients second. This office needs to treat its patients with more respect.
