Its so obvious he doesn't care anything about the health of your patients other than filling them with pain medicine. I dont know what exactly the reason was behind telling the Hospital not to use an Ultrasound during my Knee Aspiration but they said it was not performed ethically due to your improper order therefore there were few cc's pulled of fluid from my joint with no labs performed. I will keep these my chart messages for Humana insurance that the Radiologist says you wrote improperly so the Hospital & Doctor can progressively treat. Humana has filed a grievance since you refused to perform the procedure knowing there had been fluid retention for a whole 10mths to request for further research BonSecour as an organization should address the matter as negligence if there are findings of further fluid retained in my joints in ultrasound during my new aspiration. Please don't discourage other BonSecour providers from doing a procedure you refused to do out of shear pride & ego. Thx~
