...this Dr. ,by far is so remote as to dialog with the patient,even the nurse told me I have to break the ice with him. " You need not do a CAT scan or Stress test,but a Echo Cardiogram . OK, but if you were me and I am trying to find out why I have pressure in my chest,what would do? Dr., I would do all the tests then". Give me a break, the patient asking a professional of 21 years ,what to do???? Even after the tests,my evaluation with him,is vague , take a pill...not why I have blockage ,or even where it is, in my heart...but I have to ask the question. This is medicine?, am I a cut-out figure with out a brain, or just a uncaring cold fish of a physician. Would not send anyone to this type of so-called professional.
