He is by far the sorriest Dr I have ever been around in my life. I wouldn't trust him with the possums in our dumpsters life. He can't keep a job at a hospital he has bounced all over bc of it. His beside manner is appauling alon with his "education" more worried about bragging to his colleagues about sailing off to Flagstead instead of checking on his patients. Such a shame the people he has left to suffer. 1 star only because I had to to be able to leave a review.

I was in a car wreck and taken to the hospital. The Doctor barely examined me. For 4 days i limped in pain until I went to a different hospital where I saw Dr Spears. He was very thorough and took his time. He found I had a broken foot. I will never go any where else.

Standard care for Covid 19 with pneumonia- 6 mg dexamethasone daily x 10 This guy decided to give me 16 mg a day x 50 pills So needless to say I had to reseek real medical care and get titrated down to stop the dehydration of my body and comorbidities this caused. Joke of a licensed MD And never spoke to me lol. Again high level care is still missed at our local ER and the new team is of no use to the citizens of our community

Incompetent rude, does not examine, stereotypes based upon your appearance and insurance. I was in his care for 6 hours and died for 5 minutes. Thank God a real physician Dr Vanhoose stepped in and saved my life. This guy plays God and despises the indigent. One malpractice suit from closing Bellefonte. Beware of the prejudice and the reaper in this man's hands. He is a vet and so am I but he is not a brother in arms.

Doesn't seem to care if you get treatment or not, rude and refused to explain diagnosis to me.

Was very concerned about my condition followed by admission to OLBH for further treatment and to be seen by specialists. We appreciate the promptness and dedication shown to me at a critical moment. Thanks........
