Love the provider, especially Dr. Bowles. Waits are always too long and waiting room is too noisy due to folks on phone calls and listening to videos on speaker

I have nothing but good things to say about Dr Bowles and his staff. The last several appointments I,Äôve had to wait at Least an hour after my scheduled appointment time. This last visit it was an hour and 15 minutes before I was taken back. Really need to improve on scheduling
