I had an injury and called for an appointment on Monday morning. Delighted, they fit me in that morning as a ""work in"". I arrived and when trying to sign in was ""greeted"", for the lack of a better term, by the guy at the front desk. He was less than friendly and acted a little like he was annoyed at me since I was a work in and maybe annoyed at the crowded waiting room. Definately no warm fuzzy feeling or eye contact at all. I was worked in pretty quickly and had xray's and saw the doctor all within 15 minutes. The doctor was nice, however seemed distant, like he really wasnt about my injury at that minute.\r

I was sent away without ANY instruction on what to do until my next visit. No pain meds, no ice instructions, elevation? I am not dumb and know all of the instructions that should have come with it, however was surprised that nothing was told to me except to schedule my MRI and come back to discuss it afterwards.\r

I got my MRI after waiting for almost 2 days for them to call and schedule it with me. I wonder if there was another option of places to get my MRI that would have been quicker? No one gave me any options just told me someone would call me to schedule. I was thinking it would be sometime later that day at the latest.\r

I am going back for my follow up to discuss the MRI and my options...I will repost and let you know how that went. I already prepared to goto a different doctor for surgery if that is the recomendation, Depending on how my visit goes next week.
Pros: Convenient
Cons: Less than happy receptionists
