I made my appointment online and the support person cancelled it without communicating with me first to find out more about my need for the appointment. I had scheduled at the time that worked best for me. After I messaged her more details on why I made the appt with Dr. Spearman, she spoke with the nurse and the nurse said to let me keep the appt. She then rescheduled it but at a different time that was less convenient. My suggestion is for the support person to reach out to the patient before just cancelling an appt. I had my reason, as I had already communicated with Dr. Spearman, and the support person should get more information from the patient before just cancelling the appt. Thanks!

Dr Spearman and his staff were very helpful. When I first called, the receptionist who took my call was rude. I don't think she understood what I needed so maybe it was just a misunderstanding.
