Dr Howard gave me an extensive / comprehensive visit; he covered a lot of ground and put many options to me. The primary complaint took most of the visit. I also received advice while in India, which is pretty remarkable.

What could have been done to improve your experience?
The communication of the wait time would have made the visit better. After sitting in the exam room for 30 minutes I had to ask if or when I would be seen. I understand that things happen and time schedules may change. Please communicate this with patients to reassure them that they have not been ignored or forgotten about.

What could have been done to improve your experience?
I had a 4pm appointment and I was left in the room for 40 minutes waiting on Dr Howard. In my opinion, this is unacceptable. Because the appointment started so late, I was unable to have my blood drawn at the office or at outpatient lab. They were both closed. Since I had to wait minutes, this would have been a good time for me to go have my blood drawn.

I think the visit went well. I am basically healthy, so I do not see Dr. Howard often. During my visit with him yesterday, he explained some general information I can keep in mind regarding exercise and pain relief. This is helpful with my current issue and will be helpful in the future.

Was there anything that you feel was outstanding?
Overall courtesy of department and medical staff was very admirable. Truly appreciated Dr Howard allowing me to see the actual CT scan and be able to recognize the severity of having a kidney stone lodged. It impacted the size of my kidney and without medical intervention it could have lead to great complications. Thx
