Dr Myer does a good job except - he has too many clients, therefore the wait for a scheduled appt. can be an hour to 2 hours. Its an emergency walk in so you will wait as "emergencies" come in and are seen before you.  His staff is immature and don't really care.  Follow-up is awful. Don't expect them to call in your refill, fax referrals, or follow up on anything for you.  Half the time you call, you'll get their machine and never get a call back.  It's too bad.

Overall Rating: 5.0 2022-10-27

Great doctor. Very personable and thorough.
