Everything was fine but I am in terrible pain everyday and it took over 3 months after they received my referral. I have always preferred UAMS because of my medical history but when I called about my referral no one could answer how soon I would have to wait for my appointment. My chart has no way to message a doctor you have not seen before.

We had arranged for a special appointment with this provider, and had an unusual amount of wait time as the patient's name was not put into the system until the physician came looking for us.
