Tamara was fine (professional, courteous). I originally scheduled my annual physical a year in advance, only to be called 6 mos. Later to state that I would not be able to see dr.druzina (which is who I wanted to see). I was then told I wouldn't be able to see her until Nov. 2024 (6 months after the date of my physical). I am very disappointed in how difficult it is to get in to see her.
