Not really a complaint, but I just feel that instead of ending my Adderall prescription, we should have tapered back because I really feel like I still need my Adderall. But me and my physician are discussing that now.

I would have liked to know that the doctor wasn't going to call my prescription in right away. I didn't get my prescription refilled. Until after twelve o'clock the next day and it had to be done after me calling the office

The only thing that was unusual was our wait time to be seen but that is not normal for them. We're not normally there that long. But the care team was great and took very good care of me.

The signage for this office is AWFUL! GPS took us to the lower parking lot; the PRISMA sign for the Lung Center is at the top of the cross street. There was no visible sign on the building that could be seen from the parking lot on the correct side of the building. Reception noted that patients with O2 tanks had climbed the stairs to find the correct entrance. It's not that difficult to print and laminate a piece of paper with "LUNG CENTER" on it and attach it to that bridge at the handicap parking spot.
