My experience scheduling my appointment with Dr. Anthony was the exception rather than rule. I had no trouble scheduling my appointment with Dr. Anthony, but typically, for most appointments that I am trying to make, I am on hold for too long, sometimes as long as 20 minutes. Sometimes I give up and hang up. It tends to be a frustrating experience.
