My encounter with the physician was very brief, he told me what he recommended, but there was not much discussion or alternatives. I had a traumatic event when a window fell from its frame onto my finger, and I was fortunate I have a small break and a laceration near the cuticle with stitches. So I would say the physicians bedside manner was short with me. But in fairness, my injury was fortunately better than I expected given the circumstances. And I understand the medical community is extremely busy. I didn't take the lack of conversation about my care personally, but I do think patients like to feel like their medical providers care.

Horrible experience. He seemed sympathetic to my severe pain but then informed me he couldn’t do anything for me. A few days after my appointment I read his after visit notes and it was riddled with inaccuracies and blatant lies! He doesn’t listen to you and chooses who he wants to help. I recommend seeking a different doctor.
