He has not been on time for my visits recently which is problematic. It has been over an hour each time. 30 min I feel is being flexible, over an hour is poor scheduling and mismanagement on staff time management.

My appointment was for 11am. I was there 15 minutes prior. The staff was helpful and got me checked in and in the room on time. I sat there for over an hour and Dr Peña didn’t show up. The staff, let me know that, while Peña was in the office, there were 2 patients ahead of me. I made sure that I was on time for the appointment and while I understand there can be delays, over an hour is unacceptable when the Dr wasn’t called away for an emergency. I had to leave and reschedule the appointment. My time is just as important as Dr Peña’s.
