I was not feeling well for my appointment with Dr. Waraich. On top of that I waited 2-1/2 hours to see him. I was prepared to related my symptoms and what I had done for them that was not working. He zeroed in on the first thing I said and talked over my trying to related other things to him. I was visibly up set but his attituded was condescending. I realize he is the doctor and I respect that but his manner could have been more compassionate. I've read good reviews for him but is that because the patients just sit there and don't advocate for themselves? It would be nice if he could listen for 15 seconds or so. I waited 2-1/2 hours to see him.

Expect Dr. Waraich to make you wait at least an hour AFTER your appointment time to be seen. Even ran close to 45 minutes late for a procedure and had the other professional staff in the room waiting with me and wondering where he was. Does NOT respect his patients and would NEVER use this physician again!
