Extremely disappointed. Too busy, too many appointments booked at the same time. I filled out Mammoth amounts of paperwork, but he did not bother to read my chart before coming into the room. I waited over an hour to see him and the visit only lasted about 10 minutes. He seemed to be getting me confused with someone else. He tried to usher me out of the room before he even asked if I had any questions. He semed irritated when I didn't follow his prompt. He is not a detail person when it comes to discussing patient's conditions with them or addressing concerns. Spoke down to me. Said he wanted to do additional blood work, never told me what the blood work was going to be for or what is concern was, went right on to the next patient without giving me the order. This is after waiting over an hour to see him. Last colonoscopy gave me conflicting results. He look like he was half asleep when it came in the room.
