Was there anything that you feel was outstanding?
After trying several times to get an appointment with Dr. Harrington, I finally was able to talk to her nurse Ashley who went up front to make an appointment for me. They told me to call at 7:00 a.m. for a same day appointment, but every time I called they would always be taken. It was very hard to get in to see Dr. Harrington, when I was having a real problem, which I had to go to the ER. They told me to see my family doctor as soon as possible, but was not able to get an appointment. It was upsetting. Dr. Harrington is a good doctor and her staff.
What could have been done to improve your experience?
Be able to get an appointment if something comes up before your scheduled appointment.
