      I was on hold for the telehealth and it said it was idle too long and disconnected me . I went back to the link and logged in again and waited almost half an hour. I called the office twice to see if I still had the appointment and no matter which prompt I chose, I only got voicemail. You should have someone to actually answer the phones instead of sending everyone to voicemail. I needed to talk to someone and couldn't reach anyone.

      When I see this medical person, she is almost always running late. I'm instructed to be there 15 minutes before my appt. She wanders in at least 20-25 minutes after my appt. time. Add this to having to be there 15 minutes early, and she's wasting my time.

      Getting an appointment in reasonable time was initially difficult. I finally involved my Nurse Navigator to get an earlier appointment. I do understand that most physicians are having to schedule far out. However I am having a bleeding issue and, as a cancer patient, wasn't comfortable waiting 6 weeks.

      This provider was good. The medical industry as a whole is very backed up and they over scheduled. I OK to wait several months to get an appointment as long as I know when my turn comes up, the appointment will be on time and not have to wait an hour once I get there. For this appointment, I did not have a long wait when I got there. It's also annoying with the industry that as a patient, I might have to wait 40-60 minutes to see the doctor, but if I'm 10 minutes late for my appointment, I have to pay and reschedule.
