I never saw him

2 minutes or less for sitting for 2 hours. If I were a joint replacement patient or over 65 I think I would have received different treatment. Nurse had an attitude when I asked for the bathroom, all my paperwork said the wrong side. No discussion of how I tolerate MRI with the dr before being shuffled out.
