I was told to get to my appointment at 1130am (because of Xrays) I signed onto the sign in sheet. was not acknowledged until I walked up to the window at 1145am. The receptionist was rude and I explained that I've been sitting in the waiting room for 15 minutes (alone) and didn't understand why no one called me. She rudely told me my appt. was at 1145am. I told her I was advised to come at 1130am and she rudely told me she doesn't know why. Maybe she doesn't need that job, hire someone else that enjoys interacting with your customers.
Dr. Zimmerman by provided me with enough Information for me to make a difficult decision.
I appreciate getting an after visit summary from my provider on the same day.
Wish ALL specialists could have the same demeanor as Dr Zimmerman. A credit to have on staff..
Dr. Zimmerman is very personable and professional. I trust him with my medical care.
