 Horrible

I have never been to a more rude, prejudice, hateful doctor in all of my life after my wreck. He talks down people with tattoos and gets very angry when you ask questions!

Lousy doctor and person. HORRIBLE

He was very rude and horrible. Said my leg was fine with redness, swelling and blisters and a black heel. He is just money hungry. He would have me coming back until I had to have it amputated too. A horrible person. Would not wish him on my ex husband whom I despise.

Just doesn't care

maining leg became red, hot, swollen and had draining lesions I made an appt. to see him. He looked at the leg and said it's fine. "I guess I will have to see you every 6 weeks to tell you you're leg is fine." Such loving caring ways. he stinks.
