Dr. Wade is one of the easiest doctors to talk to that I have ever been too. I really appreciate how he explains things and sets my mind to rest about my concerns. His understanding of my problem was immediate and his explanation of treatment and expected outcome really dimimished my anxiety. His staff were polite, courteous , and helpful in getting me registered. I had callled earlier in day asking for the quickest appointment and thinking, with luck, maybe getting in to see him in a week or so. Amazingly, they were able to see me that same day!

Drove to the new office in terrible weather. Had several texts on how important it was to be on time. And how much I would have to pay if I didn’t get to my appointment. Checked in 10 minutes before my appointment time. About 5 minutes wait until they called me up to tell me the doc couldn’t see me without my CT scan and the machine was broke so for the 3rd time they rescheduled me.I guess you owe me $50 and refund my co- pay.
