    Dr Chatelain is very helpful, listens to what I say and responds in a way I understand. <y frustration is with getting into a specialist. It should not be a year plus wait for a sleep study or a colonoscopy. You guys need to do some serious rethinking of how things are scheduled and the wait times. I am seriously considering changing away from U of U because of these wait times.
