Never saw the doctor. I did see a fellow for a few minutes. I was running a tight schedule. I told the nurse as well as the fellow who in turn told the oncologist. I was told to just wait two more minutes. Ten minutes later I left. My appointment was supposed to be at [time] I left at [ONE HOUR LATER]

I was asked to come early for paperwork then was told there was no paperwork to do with no explanation. Then I waited an hour to finally see the doctor. I asked about a certain test my referring doctor said I'd need and was told he wasn't going to do it. I wasn't given a reason that I remember.

I arrived for my [TIME] appointment at [30 MIN EARLY], checking in with the front desk, providing my License and insurance etc...(parking validation had time stamp). I wasn't called back for my appointment until i asked the front desk what was taking so long. Once i asked, i was called back within 5 minutes around [HOUR PAST APPT TIME]. This happened because the front desk didn't check me in properly when I first arrived... this caused me and my provider a waste of time and turbulence in our daily schedule.
