Report
I called to schedule an appointment to see the doctor today and I received the worse experience to a point that I decided not to go through with scheduling my appointment!!! I don't go to the doctor's office very often, only when I REALLY need it. I don't have insurance and I pay cash. Well the person that answered the phone was really MORE concerned on how I was going to pay for the visit INSTEAD of being concerned with scheduling my appointment. She kept saying that I was a new patient so she needed to know how I was paying. I told her that I'm NOT a new patient I've been there a few times before
