When your doctor comes into the exam room, and makes you repeat three times your case history, which means he didn't even look at the files beforehand AND asks openly "Do any of us know why this is happening?", it doesn't inspire confidence. The nurses had no clue as to how to help me, couldn't name part of the body, and made me repeat my case history another two times, and acted like they couldn't be bothered. At the end of the visit, I could tell them that their solutions to my problems have been tried and didn't work. What is wrong with this picture??? And when the damn doctor asks "Are you willing to try that?" like I'm a 4 year old, was patronizing and demeaning.
The originating Florida Hospital physician, who is well known and has a 'stellar' reputation in the system, keeps wanting to do biopsies, rather than refer me to someone that could get to the root of the problem and fix it.
My last previous two visits we good. I had confidence. However, I called the office to enquire about pain management after the first visit, and she started to quote policy, and said "without looking into your file, I'd use Advil or Tylenol." Not that I was going for drugs. It would have taken a minute to take down my info and get the message to the doctor. That was rude.
9 months of being in pain is unacceptable. As soon as I get my new insurance, I'm going elsewhere. This is ridiculous.
