I drove hours away for this neurologist consult as my primary care referred me to him. This guy was snippy if I didn't know every last detail with timelines. He was rude and even threw in some insulting comments to my surprise. When it was all said and done, He wouldn't tell me anything till one missed test was finished and acted like he could have cared less about my well being. I wished I just stayed home instead of wasting my time and money,

A really nasty old man. Time for him to wrap it up. His analysis and diagnosis was firmly rooted in the 50's. he was ignorant of lots of new techniques and diagnoses. Would have made a fabulous prison guard. Had to go to n.e. baptist, finally. In 15 minutes they had the correct diagnosis and in two hours I was pain free for first time in a year.

Condescending and rude. Terrible bedside manner. I've had very few bad experiences with doctors over the years and I have to say that this has been one of them. Never have I had a doctor sit at a desk and hurl unnecessary insults, completely insensitive to my inquiries and concerns as a patient.

Very knowledgeable and professional - willing to spend as much time with me as was needed to discuss my condition. Recommended options and solutions and open to follow up appointments even though I am a NYS resident.
