Office workers, seemed, disturbed by my asking for help in charging, my cell when battery was low, to call an Uber. They were snotty acting.
Excelente
professional !
My concerns were not fully addressed. The doctor only looked at a low-quality paper copy of the X-ray, instead of reviewing the CD I brought, and assumed my condition was the same as last year without comparing both images. I had pain and swelling, but no clear treatment plan was given only to return in three weeks if the pain continued. This left me feeling unheard and without proper guidance.
He couldn’t wait to leave the room.
I brought in MRI results on my wrist. He denied the results, told me my pain was a result of my age & arthritis, ignoring what the conclusion said from the MRI & said he didn’t want to treat me because I didn’t agree with him.
Perfect Doctor
