"I found a doctor that cares! Be SURE to read ALL of the negative reviews that this doctor has! Also read the bad reviews for Grandview Hospital. The problem with this office is they overbook their appointments so you wait around 2 or 3 hrs or longer to see him. After I waited in the waiting room for 1 hour & 15 minutes I finally asked how much longer to see Dr. Calves. I was told he was with a patient in an examining room, 3 more patients were also waiting to see him in examining rooms & 1 was also in the waiting room to see him. That is 4 people in front of me. My original appointment was at 10:20. I think it would have been 3:00 pm or 4:00 pm before I would leave, but I left at 11:45 am. On my next 3 month appointment I tried to tell doctor Calves that his patients have a life too, can't sit all day waiting on him. He told me to bring a book to read like he does when he goes to the doctor incase you might have to wait for 1 hour. (NOW GET THIS!) Dr. Calves sent me a registered letter ...
that stated he would no longer be my doctor because he could not take the truth about how he treats his patients. I had already found me a very good endocrinologist before I received his registered letter in the mail. So PLEASE EVERYBODY, I warned you, Plus all the other NEGATIVE REVIEWS, about this doctor & also Grandview Hospital. Find you an endocrinologist that cares, like I did. "
