    This was my first visit with Dr. Shafqat. I previously saw Nicole Vitrone whom I also liked. Dr. Shafqat listened to me & explained everything very clearly.

    Wait time was way too long for an appointment I had scheduled a year ago.Checked in 15 minutes before my appointment (which was early morning appointment). And sat In the waiting room for 35 minutes before even being called into a room. After being called into a room and having my vitals checked the nurse left and said doctor would be In shortly. I still waited in the room for another 20-25 minutes before the doctor even came in to see me.
