I would grade you on the high side of care and service so at this time I have no specific suggestions to offer.

There wasn't anything else that could have been done. They were very helpful, respectful, professional. Had enough information, so everything was great. Thank you.

I just felt like the visit was rushed and some of my concerns were not really communicated. But the follow-up letter he sent back to my PCP, he had stated that I seemed to be concerned about my swallowing and it was more than that because of chest pain and also heaviness when walking, I get winded real fast. So I don't think he took my concerns very seriously and that's that.

The only small issue I had was having to reschedule the appointment twice due, evidently, to the doctor's own "in office" schedule. Not a problem really. I get it.

Nothing. Was a great visit

An appointment sooner may have been better for Dr. Templeton to hear the hard coughing which I had been experiencing before the visit. I was satisfied with the visit.

Dr.Templeton was definitely aware of my circumstances. Knew nearly all my background medical history. He was aware of my current health challenges unrelated to his jurisdiction. He was aware of changes needed to be made to my current meds to best be an advantage to my health concerns. He was able to project exactly when it will be necessary for my return visit.

Didn't really see a nurse. Why was I instructed to wear tennis shoes?
