Deeply disappointed with my experience. I preferred my previous practice in another location. The appointment system is frustrating—calling at the designated time results in no availability, and the phone lines are constantly busy, making it difficult to get through. I was scheduled to see a clinician but instead saw a different healthcare professional who suggested I call back the next day for the appointment I thought I had.

Everything mentioned in the initial review remains accurate. The only positive aspects of the practice are the two clinicians referenced in that previous feedback.

Disappointing experience overall. It has been difficult to secure an appointment, and phone calls regarding prescription needs often go unanswered.
