Dr Weisman is pretty awesome. Their (Carondelet) system is NOT awesome. It is unfortunate for patients, the Dr. is not to blame. They do have several drs and several locations and as long as a person is able and willing they can get you an appt same day or in a day ot two if you ate flexible. I, my husband, my child, my parent LOVE Dr. Weisman.
I just moved to the area and thought it would be good to a find a doctor in the area. Well, little did I know that it would take two months to book an appointment with this doctor because I am a new patient. I suspect it will also take a while if I am sick, however I could be wrong. But I do know they treat new patients like crap. Doctors may make a lot of money, but we are still your customers.
I'm unsure of him and unsure if I'll return. Initially it takes months to get in to a dr. in this office period. He acts like he listens however his diagnosis is not close to what the problem was. I was left hanging.
After reading the one and only negative review, I felt I needed to say that I had the opposite response to Dr. Weisman. I found him to be extremely professional, up to date and willing to listen! Can't ask for much more than that unless he can wave a magic wand and have me loose weight! He even took the time to review my meds and look for ways to help save me money by substituting something else. The bad guy in this whole picture isn't Dr. Weisman, but the insurance company who won't allow physicians to practice without having a 16 year old make treatment decisions for them and making them see more patients in a day than is humanly possible.
When I came to Arizona he was the only physician in the area. After I had a car accident I was taken off my Actos for diabetes. When I returned to Dr Weisman and asked to be put back on my medications he refused to put me back on Actos. After rising blood sugars and four years of asking for the Actos, he sent me to A Diabetic Management Nurse. The nurse put me back on the Actos and within 2 weeks my blood sugars were in normal range again. I was not satisified with Dr Weisman, as he appears to be more interested in his schedule than his patients. I recently changed from Medicare to Humana and chose a new physician in the same clinic. I was informed I could not change to a new doctor without Dr Weisman's approval. I received a call this afternoon stating that Dr Weisman would not let me see the other doctor.Since when can a doctor dictate which physician a patient can see. When in his office he sits with his computer with his back to you the whole time you're seeing him. Also, everytime I see him he tell's me and my daughter what complex patients we are and several times he has told me due to the time constraints I could not be seen as my daughter took too much time. I am disabled and depend upon my daughter to drive me to my appointments. I worked in the healthcare industry for over 31 years and I never had one of my doctors talk with a patient that way. If the doctor was running a few minutes late I would just let the next patient to be seen know that he was running a little behind and would give the PATIENT the option of waiting or rescheduling.I think what he said was rude and disrespectful and against the Patient Bill of Rights. Thank You
