Everything was great ??
August 7, 2024Gladys C.Verified patient
Doctor was extremely rude and referred to my depression as a “girly issue” and that I was probably just tired of studying. When he was informed that my depression was due to the grief over the passing of my sister he seemed regretful of his words but then stated more things to worsen the situation. Changing my doctor and not coming here again.
