    The Dr accused me of trying to be coy because of the answer I gave him. This apoint was made in August as a follow up to a medical situation I had. I thought it would be best for the Dr to read the notes that were made then about what happened, I was not trying to be coy or waste the Dr's time. A lot of tests were done when I was seen by the very kind Dr in August, I thought reviewing the notes that were made would be quicker than me trying to explain. I was sorry I didn't cancel this follow up appointment that was made in August.

  • About Robert Palmer, DO

    Human beings are complex and their health is equally so. I enjoy working with patients to unravel their health issues to ease their suffering especially when it involves looking beyond a simple solution. I believe both patient and physician must work together to achieve this goal.

    Philosophy of care

    I approach all patients as if I were caring for a family member.
