So my appointment was 8:30 for the first appointment. I didn't get in until 9:15. Next appointment was at 9:30. I got in at 11:15. I was there three and a half hours. Way too long of a wait time.

I was referred by my spine surgeon to have a thyroid nodule evaluated before surgery. Nothing was done to this effect on initial visit as I was anticipating. Looked in ears nose and throat and cleaned ears. Told had to refer to radiology and get insurance authorization. I was sent for ultrasound and/or biopsy and received neither. Not happy with "the system"!

The receptionist was very welcoming! My nurse was kind and very detailed in making sure to sanitize her hands before and after she took my vitals. She went over my medications thoroughly. Dr. Plotnick was extremely through in his exam and giving me information. I was completely at ease.

Overall the staff was respectful and professional. The Dr was thorough in my exam. Unfortunately he didn't give me the information to contact other Dr's we had discussed me contacting. Once I got home the information about the other Dr's wasn't in my discharge papers as I had expected. He did tell me he was giving me that information during my exam. My biggest complaint was the amount of time I had to sit waiting to be seen. I was in the office approximately 3 hours. I was seen by the person who tested my hearing very quickly I'd say less than 10 minutes. She was thorough quick and professional. After that I sat in a different waiting room for over an hour before seeing the Dr. I felt that was definitely far too long to keep a patient waiting. I had already decided to give them 5 more minutes. Then I was walking out the door. I value my time just as much as anyone else.
