She? is a very stupid MD. Who ever gave her the title MD should be pulled from the medical field.

Dr Popa treated a serious infection that was in my left shoulder for 18 months following a scoped surgery to repair rotator cup, and the infection at the site of repair. Dr Popa directed and monitored the infection from Dec 2016 thru Jan 2017.

I found Dr. Popa to be very disengaged, rude and a terrible listener. I no longer use her as my infectious disease doctor as she lacks the qualities that I seek and expect in a physician.
