I have been seeing Dr. McGorisk at this location for over 3 years. Since that time the number of patients has increased to the point where he is always rushing from room to room. I understand he is only at this location one day each week but there are to many appointments scheduled for that day. I would rather wait a week or two and get an appointment where he spends more time discussing my problems and concerns than looking at a computer screen dictating notes. Don't misinterpret this comment Dr. McGorisk is very thorough and I have confidence in his judgement and knowledge. The issue is the time spent with each patient has decreased. There should be more time and less patients per day.
