    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.
