When we arrived for this appointment, we were told a "message had been left " that the office had not received referral authorization from the primary. We left, checked the voicemail, no message, no missed call, no call at all frShow moreom this office. We contacted the primary who said the authorization HAD been faxed the day before to the correct (verified) fax number. At this point, this was our 2nd wasted trip to the office, the first being scheduled at the Tavares office without our knowledge, so we showed up at the Villages office. Once we confirmed with the primary, we went back to your office, primary had refaxed it in the meantime, and the fax was received, we were able to see NP Laura. We had a wonderful visit with her and cannot express enough how thorough she was, so our experience with her was great, the rest of the visit not so much therefore only a 3.
Had to wait 45 minutes after my appointment time to get in to see the nurse practicniter. Everything that was done during this appointment could have been done over the phone in less then half the time. This was very much unnecesShow moresary . I have an appointment for Jan. But could not be told the time, this appointment is within your own building! I will be told the time the day before the appointment. Not my way of doing business. We're not all on hooks just waiting for the next office visit. Poor arrangement in my way of doing business. I have to have a driver to and from this appointment, it's not just me. No consideration here.

Great doctor its to bad i have to wait at least an hour past my appointment time every time I go
Nothing yet. Just conference explaining procedure. More after.
Knowledgeable & Experienced
Very caring and thorough
I was in lobby 1 1/2 hours then in exam room over 1 more hour no one said anything to me or checked on me . I did hear the doctor talking to the couple that came in 30 min. after me. So after a hour I opened the door from the exam room, got a copy of my blood test . Went to the front desk , waited in line for my copay check back. Never saw a doctor , he was much to busy.
I have no problem with Dr Tabrez. He is caring, personable, engaging and friendly. My problem is with the wait EVERY TIME. You can expect at least an hour wait, for a short 10 minute visit. I wish something could be done to shorten the wait...........
Dr Tabrez is a very knowledgeable, kind, thorough, and caring doctor. I have had many Gastro doctors, and they have not worked out. I am very sensitive to all meds, and, therefore, I’m not easy to treat my husband, and I like to patronize the same doctors for each illness. Dr. Tabrez, goes over your records thoroughly before he speaks with you, as he does not wish to miss anything. He, also, is very patient and allows you to speak and ask questions.
Dr. Tabrez really knows his profession! He’s pleasant to talk to and covers all of your issues and concerns. Highly recommend!!
He was very excellent, asked a lot of questions to get the whole story of what was happening.
Dr Tabrez is wonderful. Takes his time to explain. The only down fall is the waiting room , when you have a 11:15 appointment and they call a 11:30 appointment first. When asked about this they said she signed in first. What is the point of a appointment if it first come , first served?
long wait to be seen. slow getting back information on tests taken.
Clear, straight-forward explanation and discussions.
Patient since 2008. No problems. Listen to you.
