Not really sure if he was just having a bad morning or if it really was his attitude, but he was far from nice. First of all, coming in an entire 45 minutes late to my appointment and not apologizing or acknowledging it already made me feel unseen. Also, I don't know what they taught him in school about empathy and health literacy, but he was just spewing our medical nonsense that I had no idea what he was even saying -- didn't even pause for me to ask questions. Quite frankly, I didn't know what questions to have because I didn't understand a thing he said. Every time I tried to bring up my issues he would roll his eyes and get jittery to go see his next patient (that he was probably late for anyways). Don't recommend him at all unless you want a doctor with a shovel up his a**.

Dr Tekmyster is a very good doctor that really cares about his patients. I have had to see him for different problems and he is always very nice.
