February 20, 2025HUNTSMAN CANCER CENTERToo long to wait for my televideo appt for 45 min. She apologized profusely and didn't rush through my appt, but the wait was so long the video system actually put me back in a "vitural waiting room". The MA told me she was on schedule so I began thinking I was forgotten but felt captive.
