    She has a great personality and that's about all she has going for her. She rushed threw my appointment, made me feel like I was interrupting her life, kept telling me I was asking too much of my appointment because I wanted her to look at my back(disc issues) and I needed my inhaler refilled.

    Mistake-prone. Used the wrong pharmacy to send order, causing me inconvenience in getting my medicine in a timely manner. My patient portal information for phone numbers and check-in instructions I provide always seem to be ignored by this staff.
