I was very happy with the providers care.
Dr. Shwader is the best dermatologist there is. He is personable and down right a GREAT doctor. I will only see him for my Childs health needs. However, we waited for over an hour and a half for our 2:45pm appointment in the waiting room and then waited another 20-25 min in the room. We arrived at 2:15pm and did not get brought back into a room until after 3:45pm and did not see the provider until almost 4:00ish pm. We finally left at 4:22pm. The wait time and behind schedule is absolutely ridiculous.
Good doctor
Very impressed with *Dr. Shwayder's knowledge & skill. He rushed through discharge instructions & left the room before I could ask questions, though.
Great doctor and staff; very knowledgeable.
