The wait time is always way too long. You want me to be there early for my appointments, but yet I end up waiting at least an hour past my appointment time. This is disrespectful of your patient's time.

Entire staff was very friendly, professional, courteous, encouraging and caring. Really impressed with how well they all conveyed a sense of empathy and concern for my well-being.

Dr Hartline is very knowledgeable. HIs bedside manner is refreshing.

You require check in 15 mins before appt. I had filled out the paperwork online before my arrival to the office. While standing in line to check in at the desk I had received an email asking where was I. I had chosen not to check in online since I still have to check in at the desk. I understand the wait before seeing the Dr but no one told me an approx wait time.


Mar 26, 2025

There was no waiting time! Barely had time to potty. The whole time being there was about 25 minutes. Everyone was nice & professional. Dr. Hartline was professional & didn't rush thru answering my questions. Very happy with UT.
