“The wait to see the doctor was unbelievable. Way to long of a time frame. My thumb was going to be amputated. I did not want a P.A. to see Me. I had to wait even longer due to that. The doctor is way to busy to see all his patients. I'm glad that I did wait. Hearing his opinions really helped me feel much better.”
