This doctor was horrible. Saw him at doctors now in altoona, ia. Was very rude, not confidential. He would not give me any specifics on my daughter's uti. told me to follow up with her primary care but wouldn't tell me why until I asked him 5 different times. then tells me it could be something more serious. When I asked what it could be he wouldn't answer and told me to google it. Horrible visit. He acted like he didnt want to give any information.

He intimidated my son. Talked down to me like I was stupid. He didn't even take time to examine my child. Very belittling and wouldn't even talk to me about my son's symptoms. My son said, "Don't let that jerk ruin your day mom. I feel sick, maybe we can go somewhere else, find a nicer Doctor. " This man is a disgrace to Doctors everywhere. No wonder the office was empty.
