Consultation was quick and not given proper time for concerns or explore timeline options. It was pretty doctor dictating course of action, which was repeat labs even though primary doctor sent us to labs to avoid this situation and labs were recent. Pretty much a re run cycle of labs before any solution.

I did not see Dr Nowfar; nor did I see a PA. I saw a nurse to get my biweekly shot of testosterone.

No bedside manners.. was short and wanted to be done w her.. didn't even give my mother an opportunity to share her concerns.. barely even came into the office.. doesn't matter if you have "seen this all the time". They have experienced pain and fear and a little compassion goes a long way ..

The doctor was very nice and explained everything he was doing in detail. I like him and would visit him again if needed.

Waited over an hour to see him and he comes in for less than 3 minutes and says my mom is fine, which for me was good news, but then there was no next steps. Like let's do testing in a year or what do the test results mean. I had to ask. I even had to ask about the urine sample that was done in office and he leaned over and said "I think it's okay... it's fine" and then he made us get out of the room fast. The part that really was bothersome was that I told the front desk that my mom had alzheimers. Not sure if he read that note but the way he spoke to her was not appropriate because of the way he talked to her. She told me that she felt that he made her feel useless and ignorant. That is not a good feeling at all to make her feel that way. We walked away confused and wondering why we referred to him. Overall, from sitting in the waiting room, it became apparent that we is only interested in workers comp cases. He should be embarrased that it's so obvious.
