I did feel the Dr. Was overworked and I was an interuption. His receptionist nurse was outstanding I felt great concern from all of his staff and I felt all but his receptionist nurse was going far above what the Doctor would've required of her and I was apprehensive and she helped a lot. This was an unscheduled but necessary visit ad I realized that I was messing up the Doctor scheduled time frame but one likes to feel their not just an inconvience never the less, the Doctor took time to try to help me While I wished he would've not told To be quite for a few minutes I do realize he needed to think however I never did get to tell him I all my concerns because I didn't want to interrupt again and thenifrgot the rest of what I wanted to ask him because I was embarrassed. Never te less he did help me and his staff seems to have great confidence in his abilities and that he is a caring person.
