Unprofessional and irresponsible

Worse dr.'s office. The assistants lost my medical MRI and CT Scans for full body examination of my lower back and shoulder. The Dr took no actions in trying to obtain the medical records provided to them. The assistant said it would take her too long to try to get into the system to see if they were loaded in the drs system data and got upset when I told her that was her job to do. Instead of assisting in trying to obtain the medical records they lost, they requested for me to leave the premises and find another dr. I further requested my medical file and they did not want to provide. The assistants were unprofessional. The Dr. was unprofessional as well by screaming at me to leave the premises while I'm in medical need after his assistants lost my medical records and their incompetence to find them.

Two Stars

Was told I would be given pain medicine to be kept comfortable due to hip fx., this was a blatant lie. Was refused a refill after I was assured in front of family and staff that all we had to do is call.

Avoid him at all cost

He is rude, ignores the patient needs and requests, ignores notes from physical therapy, rushes you in and out, and decides you’re off his service and healed before you really are. I was given zero impression that he cared at all for me as his patient, he did not care how healing was going or what pain levels you were on, and he caused more damage and trauma to my injury than I had before stepping into his office. Even commented “looks like that got worse!” Avoid him. Get another doctor. Do NOT use him as your orthopedic unless you want to be in pain and suffer with further injury.

Show Rating Breakdown

One Star

Office staff unprofessional and unorganized. Open late because your time is not valued. No signage so you don’t know if you’re at the right place or not. Computers aren’t working and of course that made the wait longer. Won’t come back. Don’t come here

crazy
