      Dr. Lyons and his staff is great. My only issue was my surgery was scheduled for 2:00 and I checked in at 1:45. I got my numbing shots about 2:20. I never saw anyone and at 3:30, I finally went out into the hallway to look for someone since no one had updated me of the long wait and I thought I had been forgotten. It wasn't a problem to wait if the Dr. was behind, I just should have been updated. To wait way over and hour after my numbing shot was too long to wait without an update.

      The staff have always been wonderful! Appointments have always been within a reasonable amount of time. My only recommendation is as follows. When I am waiting in the exam room for a physician, I should be told if there is a delay or if I will be waiting more than 10 minutes. This gives me ownership of time and can make decisions regarding the time. I understand if it takes longer with another patient or if physician ran late in surgery but just let me know.

      The wait was very long. I had a previous appt at a later time. They called me and wanted me to come in earlier. I did and sat there and waited until My original time came . They finally told me that there had been an immediate person that had to be reseen and that was the delay. I know things happen to put them behind but they should have been better about telling me what happened instead of letting me just sit there.
