It was my first visit with this doctor and it was the worst experience I’ve had. Not a good match for me. I don’t think she read my chart before the appointment at all based on her questions and the tone in her responses and questions. Just not a positive or supportive feel at all. I didn’t want to say any more to her and was eager to leave.
1.0
Awful bedside manner. The Dr. always makes me feel like an inconvenience.

The doctor assessed things well and I think she is helping me feel better right now and setting me up to be able to figure out what this problem I’m dealing with is.
