He has been my doctor for several years. I also worked with him for several years. What I like about Dr. Rowland is that he takes his time with every patient, which tells me he cares about each & every one of them. He listens to my concerns & provides advice, which doesn't always mean writing a prescription, unlike a lot of other doctors.

The only negative I would have to say is I waited a long time in the waiting room. An hour past my appointment time however, Dr. Rowland was worth the wait. He spent a lot of time with me and my concerns and I did not feel rushed. I am sure this is why he was running behind is he takes his time with his patients. Just make sure you schedule your appointment where there is not rush in you getting somewhere and bring a book to read.

Dr. Rowland is a very caring doctor. He enjoys getting to know his patients and genuinely cares. The staff and nurses are also so polite and kind. The receptionist gives my children suckers or stickers if they have to come to the office with me. They make you feel like family. With all that said since he takes his time with his patients it will require you to wait in excess of over 2 hours sometimes more. Just being snacks and download something on Netflix to binge watch. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Rowland is the worst and the rudest dr I have ever been to. His receptionist is just as rude as he is.
