Very good bedside manner and she knows exactly what to do for the pain. I’m having in my hands certain areas are very tender, and the injections have been helping.
1st meeting ok…not bad though my rating is ok. She needs to be more friendly and approachable…. Maybe it’s my mistake when I asked her if she’s a Filipino coz I am a Filipino myself thinking that I could express myself better in Tagalog to her. I think that’s probably what triggered her to be kind of aloft and didn’t answer me….. but it’s alright, not a big deal and I do not personalize it. I just happened to be a worker in a friendly ER hospital environment before. Sorry if I made her aloft and didn’t answer me…she probably just be stressed out of the day.
