Dr Espinosa is an excellent physician, but he needs another doctor to help with the case load! It is not right for him nor for us his patients! Having to wait four hours to see a doctor is unacceptable! Please fix this problem!

He needs some help. My appointment was at 10:00; I didn't leave until 3:30 pm. That's too long.

The wait time was too long. My appointment was at 9:30 and when I left out the clinic to was 12:07.

The waiting area is always crowded and if you have someone with assisted devices it's difficult for them to get around in the waiting area. I think Dr. Espinosa is still the only provider offering this service which means your wait is always long. Some of the staff act like this is just a job. They do their job and nothing extra, no smile, no friendly conversation, no nothing.

The physician is knowledgeable. And reviews findings of visit and encourages questions from patient. The BIG problem is I waited a little over 4 hours to see him this visit and last visit was almost the same. You either need to hire another retinal specialist or change how patients are scheduled. There were 2 waiting rooms of patients waiting to see the doctor. When I left the clinic at 5:45 pm, there were still 5 patients waiting to be seen. Most patients I waited with complained and were talking about finding a different retinal specialist. And I am thankfully pretty healthy but some of the patients were in poor general heath and immobile in wheelchairs. They do not deserve to be treated so poorly. Please address this problem.

plain and clear so that you can understand him, what he's saying. Because I couldn't understand hardly what he was saying. And I was looking for the PA to tell me what he was saying, because it looked like he could understand more than I could. That's all. But all in all, He seemed to be a good, thorough doctor. Thank you.

Love the doctor that cared for me however I have a problem with waiting three hours to be waited on. That's totally ridiculous to wait for three hours on appointment. I mention it to my doctor. I weigh hours every single time long Pierce more than two hours. I don't like that love the doctors care if it was another provider I would definitely use them because the wait time is too long. I'm not satisfied at all with the wait time.
