Arrived to my SCHEDULED EMERGENCY APPOINTMENT on time actually before time didn't sit in the waiting room long got my X-rays done and was placed in an exam room for 3 hours after sitting there for 3 whole hours I was asked to go get lunch because of course they were leaving for lunch. Was promised to be the first client seen once I returned well when I returned I waited another one and a half hours for the doc to look in my mouth for 15mins and refer me to someone else. worst worst worst experience the staff were nice I just didn't like the fact I was lied to repeatedly they kept saying your next the doc is on her way but course 5 hours later she shows up to do absolutely NOTHING.
