I was referred by my primary care. Dr Maniar gave me the impression he was annoyed I was there. I waited 11/2 hrs past my appointment to see him. He made statements of “you don’t need surgery. Nothing can make your arthritis better. The fracture is an old compression fracture. Did you hear me, old means it’s healed.” I’m not easily intimidated, but his behavior so shocked me that I had no response to his rudeness. Second time I had poor experience with Geisinger Ortho. I can quarantine there will not be a third opportunity. I wish I had challenged his behavior.
