Bait and switch with follow up - "I can't help" so see someone else. But at least you got your money Doctor.

I have been to a few specialists to try to find a diagnosis for my condition. My primary sent me to Dr. Ignat believing I may have rheumatoid arthritis. He does not feel that is my issue and it seems that he is the first one listening to my symptoms and is trying to help even though this may not be in his field.

I began seeing Dr. Ignat in 2013 after being very ill. Was able to get a proper diagnosis and I felt very comfortable discussing my symptoms with him. He is caring and really listens.
