The doctor was professional but perfunctory. No warmth or ease in manner.

I felt he was dismissive of my concerns and explained things to me repeatedly that I already understand. I didn't feel like he was understanding what I was trying to express and he asked for too much input on what I think he should do for medication (because that isn't what I was asking about). I felt dismissed and laughed at and rushed since he didn't have a clear understanding of my case. Sometimes when I come in, he is thoughtful and compassionate, but this one felt like he was churning me through and my questions were a hassle rather than valid Iissues to be explored.

Communication is an issue. Not always confident he understands me or that I understand him.

Was rude - I was there for a cyst and all he wanted to discuss was potential migrain. Had a very hard time understanding his english. My daughter was with me and felt the same way.

I saw Dr. N in the emergency room on a saturday evening. He was very exact and to the point. I had to have a hour long spinal tap. I was in pain, but he kept encouraging me to hold on a little longer. I know he was just doing his job and I don't blame him for the predictment I was in. I see a lot of Doctors due to my medical problems. I have been with new doctors who think they know everything and want you to be their test subject. I would rather have a man who doesnt speak english well and his bedside manner isnt as great but has 29 years experience and he knows his stuff, then ever put up with a bad doctor again. Way to go Dr. N!
