I have had several unpleasant experiences at this office. The wait times are unacceptably long; 2+ hours on one occasion without notice or explanation. The office manager later tried to charge me for cancelling an appointment the day before saying I was wasting their time. I then proceeded to write out an invoice for my 2 hour wait time & they backed down. Obviously they view themselves as superior to their patients & their time as far more valuable than mine. Despite her protestations to the contrary, Dr Gaskill is unaware of issues in her practice. I pointed out this fact with a letter I had sent about the above incidents that she had not been shown. She blamed this on the mail, I certainly hope 'the mail' doesn't interfere with her receiving patients' important test results in this way. I found the office & nursing staff curt & Dr Gaskill's attitude belittling, she spoke to me like a 5 yr old. (I'm a 40+ qualified nurse, midwife & mother of 3) I went to her office for a repeat Rx for medication totally unrelated to heart disease which she skipped right over & started berating me about my high pulse & quizzing me about my lifestyle. (No wonder my pulse was high, she was insulting!) I realize that Dr Gaskill is knowledgeable & passionate in her crusade against cardiovascular disease but it is almost to the point of 'tunnel vision'. She seems uninterested and disparaging about anything else. I will not be going back to her office.
