Patient Reviews
Jul 21, 2021
I gave 4 stars for time spent with Dr. Watanabe, but overall would have given 2 stars. I found Dr. Watanabe to be interested in trying to help me & laser focused. However, his Assist or PA(?) Leah did a horrible job with my intake information. I wrote and explained each & every error & there were MANY. Some were critical facts. One of the Techs or? on his staff told me to write & list the errors because there were too many for her to handle, when I called. I did & asked for Dr. Watanabe to please correct this information & send me a copy. No response, no corrections. This is a detrimental error & as a patient for a consult, apparently I have no recourse! This is not right or fair. Not pleased with the lack of response.
