Completely dismissed me, and stated that he did not believe that I actually injured myself at all. He also made incorrect absolute assertions about my professionally diagnosed disability, despite having no expertise in the condition and clearly limited knowledge on the impact it has on the body. He claimed that the cause of injury was "impossible", despite it being well documented as the MOST common atraumatuc injury that anyone with my condition could experience. He could not be bothered to even try to do a simple medical look up on a disease he was unfamiliar with. After my wasteful and time consuming urgent care visit with him, I went straight to the ER. They decided that it was necessary for me to wear a sling for a few days, and gave me a dose of strong pain medication. If I hadn't gone to the ER, there would have been 0 medical record of the injury- despite it being extremely relevant for the other doctors and physical therapists treating me.
