Dr. Richard Franklin Garris, MD

He seemed as if he didn't want to be there, as if my case was a waste of his time. Only asked the most judgmental questions, did not give good advice. He shamed me when I was just there for a UTI and ordered STD tests without asking me.

This MD Overmed me with HBP med -inducing fainting spells-then suggested heart problems -"a heart pacer". Two years later an alert Md half the dose and resolved my 2-yrs of fainting spells problem, but that was too late. Already referred to and attended by heart MD I was put thru procedures, given wrong toxic med and left unattended to have my thyroid damaged. Damage took place while under above MD's nose. Now I am under thyroid replacement therapy for life, and damage to my nervous system (neuropathy) due to toxic med, hypothyroitism and other prescribed med induced ills. Some MDs need go back to school for an update of skills or retire. Health Orgs get rid of dead weeds MEMBERS BE AWARE
