I had an awful experience with Steven Novella. He gave bad advice, wouldn't listen, and is stuck up.

I waited 6 days (with a few requests to call back and he never did). The results were in my chart for me to interpret. My Internist didn't get a call back either from him.

Dr. Novella spent a great deal of time with me awhen I went for my first appointment but I have been back several times and the treatment for my Migraine Headaches has not made any noticeable improvement. In addition Dr. Novella has failedd to provide any kind of treatment for the Very Severe and Debilitating Pain that accompanies these headaches. I am suffering needlessly because even prescribing decent pain reliever seems beyond his Medical Expertise.
