Aug-2024
Dismissive and rude when questioned about imaging I had specifically requested. After further imaging she said we’ll schedule a follow up, slammed the door, and left me sitting in the room with no further instructions. I then had to wander out into the hallway and find someone to ask what was going on. Her stated reason for being dismissive was because I didn’t show her with my hands exactly where it hurt and I had to explain to her that I couldn’t reach that high. When a patient tells you where it hurts, but cant reach the spot on their back, maybe, just maybe, actually listen to the patient, not where their hands can reach. Completely rude and disrespectful. She didn’t give any treatment options *at all* for the two herniated discs they *did* find. No follow
up care information, nothing.

She is very sweet and explains things to where I could understand she is very helpful
She is very knowledgeable, listens and develops a plan with the patients input.
She was very sweet and nice and explained everything to me where I understood it. Thank you
Dismissive and rude when questioned about imaging I had specifically requested. After further imaging she said we’ll schedule a follow up, slammed the door, and left me sitting in the room with no further instructions. I then had to wander out into the hallway and find someone to ask what was going on. Her stated reason for being dismissive was because I didn’t show her with my hands exactly where it hurt and I had to explain to her that I couldn’t reach that high. When a patient tells you where it hurts, but cant reach the spot on their back, maybe, just maybe, actually listen to the patient, not where their hands can reach. Completely rude and disrespectful. She didn’t give any treatment options *at all* for the two herniated discs they *did* find. No follow up care information, nothing.
Really friendly, informative, and professional. Provided all potential options with detailed information surrounding each one.
