He is very busy seeing lots of patients in Laredo! But takes great care of us! Good manner

I have had 4 visits with this doctor - for tests and consultations. EVERY single time I had a 2+ hours waiting time. It didn't matter if I was scheduled for the morning or afternoon. I happened to notice when I was signing in this last time that 3 other people had the same appointment time as me. How can the doctor see 4 people at the same time? The answer is that he can't and they just don't give a damn about YOUR time. They expect you to just sit there, wait and take it without complaint. Well, that might have been the norm 20 years ago, but times have changed and people do not have to put up with this disrespect and arrogance. If you can't see me at 3:30 then don't schedule me for 3:30 pm. They intentionally overbook trying to squeeze as much revenue as possible out of each hour.

For such long waiting times, you'd think that at least the doctor would make some effort to make the wait as comfortable as possible. On the contrary, the waiting room is hot and stuffy (though quite large and constantly full). I was sweating while I waited. There is no TV, music, or any other form of entertainment. Not even a magazine to read. It just shows how little they care for the patient - they don't care if you wait and they don't care if you are comfortable while you are waiting.

And to top it all off, the staff is very unprofessional and discourteous. They do not acknowledge you when you walk in and they seem to think that whatever they are doing is MORE important than YOU, the patient. There is no (zero) level of customer service, and they don't really seem to care. It's as if they are doing YOU the favor by allowing you to see this doctor. How arrogant!

And then, you get to see an unremarkable cardiologist who has not distinguished himself in ay way. He is not published, does not do research, does not teach nor is there anything about him that is beyond "run of the mill".

Do yourself a favor, Laredo, use a different cardiologist, any of them can do what this guy does. If you have a complicated heart problem, you probably wouldn't want this guy to take care of it and would be better off going to a "real" professional cardiologist in San Antonio. This guy is stuck in 1985 with regard to his respect for his patients.
