The wait time to see the doctor was beyond a hour and 40 minutes!  I lost patience after that and just left the office unseen.  I have never waited that long to see a doctor and I will not wait that long. Scheduling too many patients.

I love the staff because they are courteous, professional and friendly.  Dr. Ahmad has great expertise in his field and always explains everything.

I just cannot handle the long waiting and sitting.
