Doc is ok, but not worth the aggravation. Wait time is always 1+ hour, not unusual to wait 2-3 hours. Extremely difficult to get a hold of and your emergency better be after 10AM because she doesn't wake up earlier than that. Good enough doc, but don't waste your time waiting, waiting and then waiting some more.
