Patient Reviews
Dec 22, 2022
Dr. Obstbaum is terrific. Problem is, now twice we must beg for refills for glaucoma drops. Whatever interoffice channels they have don't work and the pharmacy doesn't get authorization till we've about run out. Second time this has happened and we are coming into the Christmas weekend when everything will be closed. The best they could promise when I phoned in a panic was to mark it "urgent."
