I was grateful for getting a same-day appointment. That was great. The secretary helped me complete online forms and the appointment online was on time. The provider asked all the standard questions and was thorough. My issue was that he didn’t listen to me and insisted on prescribing me a benzodiazepine, which I didn’t want. He also sent the Rx to the wrong pharmacy, not the one I told him, so I didn’t get the urgent medication I needed. I found him to be unfriendly and dismissive and I won’t return.
