I loved how the doctor came in and shake my hand. That let me know he acknowledge me and the respect. He took the time to talk to me and explain the plan of care for me and he listened to me and very nice and professional. The Student talked to me and he also listened to what I had to say

Dr. Dickens seemed unaware of any of my medical history - this is concerning as I am a new patient and as such would assume the information of my past medical history would have been obtain prior. He seemed distracted and dismissive of what I was asking and my concerns. He even answered/stopped our call momentarily to answer a text on his phone it seemed. I also heard computer notifications pinging constantly and from my view it seemed he was more interested in answering those messages than focusing on my appt.

Very good, because this way I feel good that they attended to me, what happens is that it enriches the reading a lot, I sat down as I was for a moment I thought they were not going to return or I didn't come over several times, but some nurse came by, but she never came to tell me that the way was coming or something, but I also imagine that it is because they have a lot of work and there are a lot of patients and the time you give to attend the tours fair is appreciated.
