Michael McKernan. Super listens to patient, explains problem in detail ... plus potential solutions.for problem

Literally refused to listen to what i had to say. kept saying the same things that didnt add up at all to what i know i am feeling, i’ve had 6 surgeries on my hand before, and i know what i am feeling isnt simply a pinched nerve like he suggests. i would never recommend this doctor or this core institute to anyone, in fact im going to make sure that people never come to this location ever again, absolutely terrible and on a scale of being medical professionals these doctors are the equivalent of a high school frat boy who cheated to get through with a b- average. waited almost a month to get told this when i may require immediate surgery. the furthest from professional i have ever experienced.

Listened to my concern and explained my issue very well.
