Regardless of this doctor's skill or experience, he was incredibly rude.I beleive he thinks that Tallahassee is the only place we residents can get treatement, and therefore, he can treat people like his servants.

I have been Dr. Caldwell's patient for over seven years and I have always received excellent care from him and his staff. The office is clean and conveniently located. His staff is helpful and kind. My wait is usually no more than 5 minutes. If it is ever longer, I would assume that Dr. Caldwell is giving another patient the thorough care I expect as well. I have and will continue to recommend Dr. Caldwell without reservation.

The staff was friendly, the doctor awesome and all was good. My only observation would be that the previous comment wasn't true for me. Once I got into see Caldwell it was all good. The only catch is that it did take quite a while to get in to see him.
