The doc has no bedside manner. He makes his patients wait forever past appt times knowing they are paying for parking & the waiting room is smaller than a home bathroom with dozens of people cramped & no extra seating. 2 hours later he sees you for 5 minutes & rushes through questions. He doesn't answer everything & barely does any check up (didn't even put on gloves bc he didn't even touch/examine patient). It's a hassle to get any documents/lab results/future appointments. Go somewhere else.

The office is tiny. There were over 10 people waiting in the room & hallway because there was only 5 seats & no standing room in the cramped office. Clerks spoke mostly only in Spanish. I don't look it, but I can understand some & I was affronted at how they were judging the patients--moving Hispanic names up the list while making the only black & white person there wait longer. They overbook patients with multiple coming in for the same timeslot & all waiting over an hour. Unpleasant visit.
