After trying to get a referral for a sleep study, it’s been over two months and I haven’t received a call from the office that would do the sleep study. I had a virtual session with Dr. Fir about 2 to 3 weeks ago and I thought we would then, have a refer immediately to the sleep study lab, and I still haven’t heard from them. I understand that that study lab is up to 4 to 6 months waiting time for an appointment. Therefore, I am very anxious to at least hear from them.

Elizabeth is so awesome when you check in as well as all of Dr Fear's staff. This place has to be the very best when it comes to an in tune machine firing properly on all cylinders.

Daniel Fear was awesome! He was informative and always treated me kindly! Only thing I would complain about and it has nothing to do with Dr Fear, is that the bills keep coming and they are not all lumped together.
