Very little waiting. Appointment and tests were completed, and I was on my way in a very short period of time. Dr. Ashley is a very patient and caring doctor. Not only is he extremely competent, but he also makes you feel like a friend. He listens intently to what you have to say, and provides clear explanations as to what he believes is going on with the issues I presented. I appreciate his knowledge and skill and trust him implicitly. One of the best primary doctors I’ve ever had.
