It was a long wait just to get in the examination room and even longer for the cortizone shot. During the examination the doctor seemed aloof and condescending when asked him questions. He seemed only interested in giving you the shot.
They had no idea who I was and had no appointment for me when I called to confirm. Then to make matters worse my 11am became a 3pm. This is the second doctor in a 2 week span that didn't have my appointment any knowledge of what I was talking about when mentioning ZOCDOC. So makes me wonder all the information I filled out that allegedly I didn't have to do again were does that go? Who I has all my personal medical information? Because 2 doctors stated to me straight out they had NO IDEA WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. When it happened with one doctor I chalked it up as a fluke, so I didn't mention it but 2 doctors. WHY? WhamATS GOING ON?
Verified patient
He was uncaring and uptight. He was judgmental. He was more concerned with my personal life than my pain. Such as how was I taking care of myself, who lives with me, and why I wasn't working. He made me uncomfortable. I would never recommend him to anyone. He seemed to be racist. I hate to say that about anyone. But that's how I feel. Well the neurontin he prescribed I was allergic to. I was covered in hives. Doing fine now found me good Doctor who listens and cares.
Excellent. Professional staff.
Everything went well
