"This office is careless. When making my 1st appointment, they did not even change my phone number and address to my correct one. They were using an address from 30 years ago. Then we called asking questions and told them that we had appointment with Dr. Abel and no one bother to tell us that the appointment was with his PA not him. I cancelled the appointment and asked to see Dr. Ragsland. I found out by my primary care that they are now refusing to see me when everything was their office' s fault for not pay close attention to details. Details are the most important thing at any position. You are dealing with someone's life. Don't use this office you will get the run around with no solutions."
