I had an appointment for my son's circumsition at 11:30. I was advised not to feed him an hour prior to the procedure time. They had us wait almost 1 hour before coming to get my son for the procedure! By this time, my son was irritated as it was time for him to eat. I think it is very unprofessional to have us wait almost 1 hour when you advise us to not feed our son an hour before the procedure. Not happy at all with that.

I arrived at 7 a.m. on a Wednesday after a 3 hour drive in from the shore. I received no formal instructions from the surgical center only my surgeon's office to be there at 7 a.m. When I arrived, the door was locked and there was a sign on the door that I had to call a number in order to gain entry (glass door, people inside). I rang the buzzer instead. A young woman opened the door and asked if she could help me. I informed her that my surgeon had instructed me to be at this location for a surgical procedure at 7 a.m. She said to hold on and closed the door in my face. A few minutes later she returned, unlocked the door and said "Well you should have been here at 6 and you didn't call first! I don't know what you expect us to do now!" I informed her that I had no idea what the protocol was having NOT received anything from your center. She argued that that was impossible. I whipped out my phone and started scrolling through the received calls, voice mails, and emails ... all bupkiss. She said that didn't matter I should have known better to contact them for instructions to which I asked "Do you want me to leave? Am I supposed to reschedule?!?" She responds "Do you want to leave? There's the door!" I asked to speak with my surgeon and she huffed off. She returned with all the paperwork she should have had me signing when I arrived. This is a surgical center!!! Patients are already anxious and they have to deal with these office harpies?!? Heads should roll! Simply awful experience. I will NEVER return to that center.

As advertised. Only been two weeks but no problems so far. No surprises with the bill either.
