He cares more about making money than taking care of patients. He truly does not care about his patients. Worst doctor ever.

Reminds me of a car mechanic that is going to get as much money as possible out of you, but doesn't care about you. Only cares about how much money he can make, not about actual patient health. Actually lied about blood test results, apparently he did not agree with the treatment after ordering blood tests.

This doctor definitely has his own agenda. He severely misrepresented the results on my blood tests. He told me that my hormone levels were 10X outside normal, when in fact they were within the normal range, just on the edge. He appears to be very thorough, when actually he is making a lot of assumptions. Clearly he had made up his mind before getting the blood tests results.

This doctor cares more about his political opinions than caring for his patients. He wrongly diagnosed my condition without any testing or thorough physical exam. I think he is incompetent.
