The Eye Institute of West Florida

I recently had an appointment with at the West Coast Eye Institute in St. Petersburg with Dr. Chad Hummel. As usual, I showed up 25 mins early, checked in and was brought back to the exam/waiting room. After being seen by the medical assistants, my appointment time came and went, I waited and waited and waited 30 minutes, 45 mins, 60 mins, after 70 mins I got up and left. Never was seen by the doctor. Only 2 other people in the waiting room. One still waiting to be seen. No emergencies going on. I notified the assistant I was leaving, she apologized, and knew it had been a long time. I think that 30 mins is about average/normal time to wait, 60 mins is ridiculous, but 70 mins...totally unprofessional. Total time in the office 95 minutes. I have seen 3 other physicians there and had -0- problems. I would not recommend this physician as he does not treat patients with respect. Life is too short to settle for this kind of treatment from any health care provider.
