Charlotte is a morbidly obese nurse who is condescending to patients. She thinks she is a Doctor, she is not. She does not like to be questioned. She thinks she has more authority than she does. She should've a patient and get her weight, and personal and workplace issues under control, before she is in an early grave from morbid obesity.. I do not recommend this clinic for long term care. Referalls and prescription refills are forgotten about a lot. Charlotte treated me extremely unprofessionally Tuesday , Feb. 25th. I will talk to Doctor Hood regarding this, I may report her. No one deserves to be treated that way, with breast cancer and a stroke on top of that, plus osteoporosis, Fibromyalgia,..Charlotte you can't see my pain, but it's very real. Your morbid obesity is there for everyone to see, and it's hiding a lot personal and workplace issues that you take out on patients. That is not acceptable.

Dr. Hood made me feel very uncomfortable. He started off his visit by coming into the room laughing after I had just heard him talking about my case. He may not have been laughing about me, but it made me feel uncomfortable any ways. He then tried to downplay the fact that I was sick which made me furious! I will not be going back to him!

I went to see Dr. Hood. He is not my regular Dr. but I needed to some one ASAP. He listened, had a great personality, and cares about his patients. I think he is a great guy and a great Dr. I highly recommend him.
