He's a dickhead. He assumed I was just seeking drugs and refused to do anything for me. What I needed from him was to check my eye and tell me if it was infected, because the pain shot through the roof. I was accidentally blinded by medical staff during surgery two weeks earlier and was having repeated instances of choroidal hemorrhaging- and was in the middle of a choroidal hemmhorrhage when I saw him. . My primary care doctor- who was across the hall in the same building, was too busy to see me, so he said he'd write me a prescription for painkillers, but I needed a doctor to make sure the pain wasn't caused by infection.

Not only was my primary care doctor across the hallway for him to consult with, all of my medical records regarding my eye were available to him on his computer, if he had bothered to check. He didn't. I finally just told him "I'm going to go see another doctor", and as I walked out, he got all snotty with me, and he's real lucky I didn't knock his monkey ass out.

Don't go to the urgent care center in the battleground Vancouver clinic or you'll have to deal with him.

He was horribly rude! Went in to urgent care to ask questions about my meds I was taking while have horrible shower pain. He immediately decided I was a drug seeker, said right off the bat he want going to be giving me any Vicodin or Percocet if that's what I wanted. I don't like taking narcotics so I had NO intention of asking for or taking anything like that. When I told him my pain level gets as bad as an 8 or 9 at times he said "well I doubt that. 8or 9 is child labor pains. You don't look like you're experiencing child labor pains. I know, I have 4 kids". I've actually given birth to 2 kids, so I know firsthand child labor pains! He was rude, impatient, and did absolutely nothing to help me! Wouldn't even answer me if it was ok to take tramadol, Tylenol, and flexeril at the same time or if I could take more tramadol. Just gave me oral steroids, even though I told him I was diabetic and didn't want them because I was getting a steroid shot from my rheumatologist a few days later. He said that was all he would do for me. I left crying and feeling worthless.
