He’s attentive, he’s Friendly and Caring.
-
He made it clear that he did not want to examine me when I went in for a “Suspected” yeast infection. Instead he asked me if I was ok with him giving me an rx to treat it and antibiotics for bacterial vaginosis without even knowing if I had BV which I didn’t . He then said to come back if it’s not resolved and he suggested that I can schedule with a female provider. He made it uncomfortable for me to even ask him to just examine me since I’m there already. He made my appointment uncomfortable, as a doctor he should have examined me then prescribed as he saw fit especially since I said it was suspected but not sure of a yeast infection. I will be changing my provider to a female which I did have and got this dude assigned to me after my provider was no longer at that facility.

Hard to get referral. Staff does not return emails.

He didn’t go over any of my test results with me and after my visit I had to ask. Also I felt rushed on my visit. He said he didn’t get my test results but I am glad I had my copy to show to him. He was supposed to give me medication but I have not gotten it yet for my Osteoporosis that I just found out that I had.
