He's rude, unempathetic, and unprofessional. At every appointment that I had with him, he is argumentative. He never asks if I have any questions for him, and walks out of the room. On the first visit, he became argumentive and belligerent with me for needing a referral for a specialist that I had a follow-up appointment with. When I explained the reason, he condescendingly questioned if I knew what the symptoms of anemia were. During my last/final visit, he flew into a rage and went into an angry rant for over 20 minutes about me going to an imaging center for a test instead of using his office because I did not want an X-ray for a ligament injury. I wanted an MRI because it would show the damage to the ligaments and tendons, along with any bone damage. Which I informed him about during my previous visit. He decided to schedule me for an X-ray anyway. He also questioned why I wanted to go to an imaging center instead of his office. When I told him that there was more availability at the imaging center, he disregarded it and continued with his rant. Lept to a diagnosis of tendonitis when I told him on a previous visit that I injured it when lifting something, and had no problems with the leg before that. Also during the same visit asked me why I did not go to physical therapy as he recommended. I don't see how he expected me to go when the physical therapy facility only received a cover sheet and nothing else. I have been in limbo for nearly a month with pain due to his office not sending a referral. I did not have tendonitis before I probably do now due to the delay of care from him and his staff. He tried to blame me and tried to call me non-compliant in so many words. He asked me at one point if I trust him. The interactions with him and the staff have done nothing to make me trust him. Delaying a patient's care, and being condescending, dismissive, and rude are not the ways to build trust. The referral coordinator swore up and down that she sent re-sent the referral while I was there for my visit. I called the physical therapy facility and guess what? Still nothing! Please find another doctor that listens to your concerns and one that is not materialistic with a tacky studded stethoscope.

Very unprofessional and rude! He cares more about the bedazzled stethoscope around his neck than he does about his patients.
