I’m a patient of another doctor who has pooled her patients with Dr Rathwell at Rideau Crossing so they can alternate weeks in the clinic and at the local hospital. I am greatly satisfied with my original doctor but less than happy with Dr Rathwell. Most often it is a student doctor who takes the appointment and Dr Rathwell doesn’t make an appearance. However, when he does he seems to give the impression that he doesn’t know why you are there (staff specifically asks when you book the appointment and again when you go into the exam room to wait). You end up explaining for a third time and then you watch him go onto the computer to click and type. You will get one or two questions but you are really on your own to tell him what you think might be going on (which I don’t like, since I’m not a doctor). He has a good chance of summing up at this point and prescribing some medication, even though you have barely exchanged information. You will even find it necessary to ask about test results like bloodwork that had been ordered before your appointment. He seems to be preoccupied or worse: disinterested in you being there.
