I chose the 4:30pm slot which guaranteed me minimal wait time. My family doctor recommended me for a second opinion for chest specialist. Visit to this doctor was totally worth as he was able to understand the situation within a jiffy after peeking into family doctors prescriptions. He analyzed my Issues while discussing with me and examining me with stethoscope. He concluded with full confidence what was wrong with me. Precautions, remedies and all. This meeting was not more than 3 minutes and I am out of his cabin. Totally freaking Professional he is.
