Diana Pascu, MD

She was my PCP. I had started complaining about pain in my left leg & she told me to take tumeric to help with it. I continued to complain about my leg pain for a long time. My pain was BAD & I showed her exactly where it was. She LAUGHED AT ME & said THERE ARE NO MUSCLE OR LIGAMENT ATTACHMENTS THERE & THERE IS NO REASON FOR MY PAIN. My pain continued to get worse & worse. My leg started giving out on me. One night on the stairs I fell & hurt my left leg AGAIN. It was bad & I could not see Dr. Pascu so I got in to see a PA. Well THANK GOD AND HIS ANGELS ABOVE FOR THAT PA WHO WAS A GODSEND! She sent me down to x-ray after & did this 1 SIMPLE TEST. They found a BONE TUMOR IN MY LEG RIGHT WHERE I ALWAYS POINTED TO!!! I was referred to an ORTHOPEDIC ONCOLOGIST & WAS TOLD THAT OVER THE PHONE. I never saw her again & I wish I mentally had the strength then to report her to the Board of med & sue her but you only have 1 year to sue and I was busy with cancer fears & many many tests. But I… needed to share what happened to me and I don’t think she deserves her medical license anymore. I mean could you even imagine something like that happening to you?
