Doctor Daley seemed in a hurry. It was as if the X-rays said it all and I felt dismissed just because they didn't show an urgent problem. He didn't sit down and talk even for a few minutes. I was so thrown by this that I failed to ask about or discuss concerns I had. I am an intelligent individual who researches and learns about the body and appreciates learning more and getting input from thoughtful doctors who consider patients more than their X-rays. It is disappointing and not what I expect from the person who is receiving payment from me and my insurance.
