He's always 1.5 to 2 hours late for the appointment, leaving patient to wait in a cold exam room without any indication of to when he's coming, always apologizing. But???

Yeah I really had a good experience there? I got a liver transplant. They were great. Every one of them, I never had no problems and may continue to give me good. Healthcare, they're the best. Thank you very much.
