He was EXTREMELY rude in our appointment. He told me he wouldn’t do surgery that only “pain management” is all we could do. So basically after a year or 2 and thousands of dollars to him I’ll be back in the same condition I’m in now and most likely in debt from it all. He offered no type of help and brushed everything off. He told me I needed to loose weight and I was too big for my bones and it was causing the problem. What he didn’t bother to ask or acknowledge is…I was a professional/competitive dancer for 13 years and this was caused by that, not my damn weight. He also didn’t bother to acknowledge that I have PCOS and that does not make it any easier to loose weight. As far as I can tell, he didn’t know my name until he looked at the computer. He never viewed any of my stuff until he was in the room and came up with something on the spot. I wouldn’t recommend him to anyone as he does not take the time to learn his patients. He made me very upset and confirmed this was my last time
