    Near the end of my exam and after answering my questions of concern, he asked me lastly, are there any other final questions you have? I appreciated that. He wanted me to feel satisfied with our visit.

    The doctor was great. I really am not happy with how long we have to wait. If our appointment is at 10: I would assume within 20 min. We would be taken to a room. Sometimes my appointments take two hours and most of it is wait time. My time is valuable also. Perhaps a few less patients in a day.
