Dr. Tribble was very thorough, listened very well, and was extremely knowledgeable about my complaints and problems that I was... that I came in with today. As a healthcare professional, I have not seen a doctor that was knowledgeable with such great bedside manner in a long time, so it was very appreciative... appreciated, sorry.

The wait was way too long. Once I was taken back, the process moved in a reasonable time/pace. I was asked to arrive 15 minutes prior to my appointment time which I did. Then I waited in the waiting room for 1hour 45 minutes. I received multiple reminders to ensure I was on time, but that didn't lead to an efficient process.

Dr. Tribble and his staff were phenomenal! I was very scared about taking this next step in my healthcare journey. I left the office with ease of mind knowing I will be ok. I have anxiety pretty bad and I feel very good knowing that this next step will also help with my other health problems. I am looking forward to being under his care and being a better, healthier me.

I had a 10.30 appointment, but had to wait more than 45 minutes before being called in to see a nurse before meeting with Dr. Tribble. I told the nurse and Dr. Tribble that was inconsiderate to me as a patient. He offered to bring in the office manager, so I could tell him of my complaint, then I met with him and repeated my problem. The office manager listened, heard my suggestion about informing patients when there is a delay, and took notes. Dr. Tribble and all the nurses have been competent and wonderful.

I want to thank everyone that was involved with my surgery. They made me feel safe. My son got lost trying to find his way to me before my surgery. A nurse face timed him and brought him to me before I went back for surgery. I was so thankful for her. She brought him to me just before my surgery. She went out of her way and I was so thankful for her! She went above and beyond! I want to thank her so much. Words can't express how grateful she made me feel.

The length of time between first & second appts. Is too long! 30 days is a lot. I'm not sure if it's done for insurance. Purposes or what. It wasn't really explained.
