My provider is great. The communication in the clinic is very poor though. I did a CT scan back in September and was supposed to have a follow up to go over the results of the scan about a week later. That day, my doctor ran 2 hours late, and nobody in the clinic informed me. By the time I was seen, I had only 5 minutes to speak with my provider before I had to to leave to get my son from school. We did not get to go over the CT scan results. When I attempted to follow up to reschedule this appointment, no one ever made the appointment for me. I didn't get to go over my results again until this appointment in December. It had some crucial information about issues I've been having that I should have received months ago
