After working with him for years and trying to figure out what my son had going on, he disregarded our last few years of work of trying to explain the breakouts and wanted to start over. The history was right in front of him but was rude and didn’t want to take the time or listen. Then we were lectured about his 7 different times he had to go through chemotherapy himself. He made comments implying that I was not taking the right actions with my child... not the subject we came in for. I don’t plan on visiting him again.

This doctor was in a big rush and did not bother to explain anything but just wanted to take the spot off my skin and leave the room
