Saw Danielle today… she was very informative and answered all my questions. Not in a rush and took as much time as I needed.

Felt rushed, maybe 5 total minutes of interaction after I’d completed a multi page questionnaire. This document wasn’t even reviewed and I ended up returning it to the front desk because he hadn’t looked at it. The Dr. refused to discuss imaging findings after reviewing in office x-ray because it was out of his scope and instructed me to call my PCP. Would not recommend for complex diagnoses. Felt like a waste of an appointment.
