Very pleased with Dr. Huben. I knew I was in good hands.

For the past year i've been treated by Dr. Huben for a condition that causes my body to absorb and store excess iron. In general, the medical model for treating this condition is to have blood regularly removed. Dr. Huben ordered such removal, and monitored my draw down adequately. However, my case has been complicated, it has taken much longer than most patients to be treated, and i remain having some strange outlying markers in my blood results that indicate i may not be fully treated.

When i suggested to Dr. Huben that my case may be more complex, and there may need to be additional metrics that we analyze in order to consider treatment, she was entirely resistant to considering them, and immediately jumped to suggesting that I go see a different physician. I offered to share some newer medical journal studies regarding this topic, but she refused to review them. Despite attempting to be calm yet firm in inquiring more about my care, and affirming that i respected her as a physician and simply was concerned for my health, I received a letter from her dismissing me from her care.

This is the kind of behavior that causes the general public to mistrust physicians. After being a loyal patient, paying on time, attending every scheduled appointment, being kind and courteous to her and her staff, I feel having a physician simply dismiss a patient because they don't want the patient to ask questions or question their treatment plan is completely unacceptable and irresponsible conduct.

I would not recommend seeing Dr. Huben for this reason.

Poor bedside manner with cancer patients. Status quo as far as treating cancer, nothing extraordinary. Left too much of the decision making up to the patient.
