This was a video visit and was easily accessed, easy to understand and convenient for me not to have to make trip to the clinic.

This was a tele-appointment. Information told me to log in 15 minutes before appointment. One hour before the scheduled visit, the doctor called me and told me to log in 30 minutes before appointment. I did as requested and then waited (with not human acknowledgment) for 45 minutes before doctor came on. I am an intelligent person and did not need 30 minutes to log in. I do not appreciate the wasting of my time. Doctor did apologize for being 15 minutes late to appointment.
