Run. The pulmonary practice he works at is amazing, but this doctor is arrogant, doesn't want to be bothered and un-thorough. He is in fact a bully.

My mother was in the hospital for the 5th time this year. Her last visit is a memory of this Dr. standing outside her room yelling and pointing his finger at her . His point was he wanted her Covid tested. Just Got his bill and honestly how do u charge 500 dollars for that . Thanks Dr.
