Did not provide me with my full 3 month perscription for my most important sleeping medication, despite providing a 3 month perscription for my other medications. No way to contact him through MDLive without paying for an additional appointment and his phone number does not connect. A doctor should want to help his patients, and provide them a way to reach out.
