    This so called doctor has left me unseen for several months now after having a heart attack. Calling the office does no good at all as the receptionist can't seem to decipher the information on their own computer. I have had to have my family doctor contact this group multiple times to attempt to get some help. So far to no result. This whole group needs to be investigated.
