Dr. Jon David Overholt, MD

He was condescending and wanted to change my prescriptions around, saying that he didn’t agree with the two that I was on. I was shocked and told my Primary about my urgent care visit with him, which was also his colleague. Unbelievable

1998, I had “wobbly” eyes, and I told him that I had a history of 6th Nerve Palsy, that I think this is neurological. He said it was allergies and prescribed a nasal spray. I saw him again for dizziness, and I had studied the 12 cranial nerves the night before, hoping he would take me seriously. He said harshly “Anatomy is the most difficult class in med school and I got an A!!” Then told me it was anxiety and “I want you to stop watching the news!”. Guess what...? I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis about a year later by a new PCP who took me seriously. Secondly, our house burned down in ‘99 and lost everything; I developed PTSD and needed time off work. I will Never, Ever forget this, but he said gruffly, “I want you to go back to work, don’t think about the fire, and don’t take any sh-t from your supervisor!!” Then slammed the exam rm door. I couldn’t stop crying. I went to an urgent care dr 2 hrs later, still so bereft that my husband had to speak for me. That dr. was… stunned and told me to find another dr. ASAP, then screened me for depression and diagnosed me with PTSD. My therapist had me file a complaint with my insurance co. I would have sued him, but after such a tragic loss, I didn’t have it in me. I wish I would’ve followed thru. “Number One: Do No Harm”.

He is the best!! He truly cares for his patients.
