I waited an hour in the waiting area. He wasn’t in the exam room more than 2 1/2 mins if that, all to tell me “I’m sorry you’re hurting” He didn’t even bother to look at my chart. I had seen him about 6-7 weeks before and he seemed helpful then, but he didn’t even bother to look and see what we had done prior. I know this bc he offered all the same things that clearly had not corrected the problem. I felt like I was begging him to help fix my problem, and then said I would be scheduled for an MRI and asked if I had a day that worked better. I responded Monday and Wednesday. The nurse came back in and said your mri is scheduled for Tuesday 8:30…. I was completely blown off about what was wrong. The only reason I’m sure he booked an MRI was because I begged him to help me fix my foot before he quickly walked out.
He’s knowledgeable and listens to you. He explains everything very well! Great visit!
