Makes you feel like your bothering him-has a 15 minute time limit and walks out when reached.Rude nurses-feel worse then before seeing him-and have went several times.I think i would be better off seeing a dentist

Overall, Dr. Kakish is a good Dr. that I would recommend. The only problem I have is the utterly ridiculous wait to get prescriptions refilled if you need it on a day he is out of the office. He only has 3 days that he fills prescriptions. If you run out of something over the weekend, forget it. If you call to get a refill from the pharmacy and you have 0 refills, expect to wait about 3-4 days to get your medicine. There are many times that I have had to g o without certain medications for over a week because they don't respond very quickly to faxes sent by the pharmacy. The advice they give there is call it in a week before it needs to be filled. I don't know about the rest of you, but I work 60 hours a week and don't have "out of the office days" to stop and count my meds to be sure I am calling in each one 1 week in advance. Very frustrating!!!!
