Cleveland Clinic strives to make scientific advances that will benefit patient care and support outside relationships that promise public benefit.

I wanted to schedule my appointment back in February but your calendar software wouldn't allow appointments for July. Your software should be updated to allow making appointments longer than 3 months. I usually see Dr. Waggoner every 5 to 6 months. Some of his patients see him once a year. There should be more calendar flexibility.

Dr Steven Waggoner is an amazing human being and I was thrilled with all of his new staff - I have been so nervous about transitioning from University Hospitals to Cleveland Clinic, and each and every single person I've interacted with at Cleveland Clinic has truly been amazing! Dr Waggoner's a huuuuuge asset to any gynecological oncology team - he saves people's lives, not just physically, but mentally, and emotionally, as well - and so far, I feel that every team member is there to do the same!
