Review for Dr. Gwynn

I was referred to Dr. Saab for bone density issues. At my first visit he spent a full hour on getting a complete history and coming up with a treatment plan. I was very impressed. He sent a very thorough report to my referring physician who was impressed.

Review for Dr. Saab

All I can say about this clown is a HARD NO. If you have white coat syndrome or wary of doctors, don't go to this one. He does not take the patients seriously, doesn't make inserts and basically just outright rude! I wouldn't let my worst enemy go to this so called Dr.

Review for Dr. Naldo

The wait time was ridiculous. Arrived at 2:00 for a 2:30 appt, rough back to a room at 3:30 and was not seen by the Dr until almost 5pm. Dry Poor planning and scheduling.
