Somehow we were scheduled for the wrong Dr. Dr. Marr is a bone Dr, and we needed a toenail Dr. He let us know that he didn't do any of that and told me to find a Dr. in Jacksonville since we were driving to Wilmington from Richlands. I told him that the VA had already informed me that there were no podiatrist in Jacksonville that takes VA coverage. He proceeded to search for a podiatrist in the Jacksonville area and I had to inform him again that they didn't take VA coverage. He then told me that he can't do anything for my 100% disabled husband. No medicine...nothing. I said ..he can't at least cut them ..they are giving him pain. He said he didn't do that and when he saw me upset ..started talking to my daughter and did not address me again. He acted arrogant and rude and like we were in his way.
