Dr. Clifford Percy Turk IV, MD

I was informed my baby’s heart stopped beating and would have to be inducing I went through 12 hours of labor before my baby Was born. The placenta would not pass on it’s own so I had to have a D and C procedure, Dr. Turk was the anesthesiologist on duty. I had a very long day and was still contracting, he was very rude before he even came and talked to my husband and I storming through the Prep area of the operating area several times before he even spoke to us. He then came over offered no condolences, I’m sure he had not even looked as why I was there. His bed side manner was the worst I have ever experienced. He was very short with me never looked me in the eye, just pretended to make circles on his paper he had, this is just a high paycheck for him he does not care about the people that are placed in his care. His nurse was very nice and compassionate he however should not be allowed to treat people the way he thinks he is entitled to since he holds the title he does.

This doctor is worse than horrible. He is a smartass and he doesn't want to answer any questions. He thinks because. He is a doctor then you shouldn't ask questions. He couldn't get my sisters epidural in and she was screaming . He seems like a stupid dumb jock. I would give him a minus number for rating if they have it. He should be working at Walmart.

He gave me a spinal for my c-section with my second baby. He poked and prodded me several times and was unsure of what he was doing. It was more painful than my vaginal birth with my first baby. He told me he might have to do it again because I could feel my legs right. I was so scared I would feel the dr cutting me. Awful experience. Nothing compared to the birth with my first baby. That anesthesiologist was perfect and painfree. Dr. Turk spent more time flirting with the nurses than concentrating on what he was doing to my back.
