I had to wait about 2 hrs before seeing the doctor. The Doctor was supposed to call or message me letting know if she wanted me to start back taking my metformin, (after she got my lab work back) or if she was going to start me on a new diabetic meds. No one from that office has messaged me or called me. I have been having bad headaches & feeling sick from being off my diabetic meds. I have called the office 2 different times & message them also.
