Dr. Christopher Gordon Ralph, MD

Went to ER only because my Cardiologist wanted me to get CT or Ultrasound to rule out continued internal bleeding from impact injury to elbow that continues to swell and bruise 5 days after. He rolled his eyes at that suggestion and that another Dr had put me on antibiotics to proactively stave off secondary infection. Never got the tests that were the only reason I went to ER at all. If my condition worsens, I will be filing complaint. Either way, he had to have flunked bedside manner classes in Med school.

Being a Dr does not make you a god. Try talking to your patients. Look up the definition of empathy. HCA just lost our whole family's business.

This Dr collects his fee, has no bedside manner, acts like I was an inconvenience, did not look up my history, tried to prescribe me a medication well known to make my condition way worse, and refused to contact my own physician. Each time I've been treated by him, I've been very ill and in pain. I've lived with my condition for years. I have records to prove it and he had access to those records. This chap has no empathy. I suggest he research the oath he took and remember why he became a doctor. Every patient is different and their needs should be assessed in that matter. I've never had a visit with him where I left feeling better. He's very quick to get you discharged and gone.
