Your My Chart service Is terrible. Every time I attempt to use It to try to read my Information or make or change and appointment or check my schedule It rejects me with a statement that my user name or password is incorrect. Then It rejects any update. The providers all say that they know about it but cannot help.

I did have to wait but I know that is because Dr. Effron spends as much time with each patient as is needed to address and hear their issues. I did not have any issues waiting other than I felt that the office staff should have said to me that he was running behind as I had someone drop me off and I felt I was inconveniencing my ride. Dr. Effron is my favorite doctor and I would wait all day/night to see him. He cares about me and it shows.
