Georgia Gastrointestinal/Liver

This office has a single staff member that will not not open the window until you call on the phone. The doctor is excessively late for appointments, and while you wait in pre-surgery he will have lunch, visit other patients back at his office, and make personal calls in the hallway of the hospital on the mobile. After 4 hours and 30 minutes I gave up. He remained in the hall on a call ordering white styrofoam cups while I was leaving. He did not care, never visited me in the pre surgery room, or even stated I will get to you soon. During the 3 and 1/2 hours later every nurse apologized for his unprofessionalism. They believe he is a good doctor, but apologize over and over again and state this is the norm. I am sure nothing will happen to Dr. Tayara, but its unprofessional and ruins ones confidence in a surgeon. Someday when Piedmont Hospital hires a prudent manager this will no longer be accepted. Its just completely rude, inconsiderate, unprofessional, and uncalled for. Thank you
