The worst “doctor” I’ve ever had. Should not be treating thyroid and autoimmune disorders. He has no idea what he’s talking about. When I was his patient, I would drive all the way from Florida to see him, just for him to spend 2 minutes talking to me. All he would say to me is “You gained weight. You need to stop eating junk food.” Even though I had been gluten free and a healthy eater for 7 years. One time, he had the audacity to freaking show me a slideshow with a picture of an apple on it. Acting like I didn’t know what a freaking apple was… to give me examples of things I should be eating, despite the fact that one of the symptoms of untreated hypothyroidism is literally weight gain. Still, I followed every word of his advice, just for him to blame me for my own medical problems every time I came back. I always left his office in tears. Never once did he offer a solution like raising my dose for my ongoing hypothyroidism that wasn’t fully treated. I had to force him to raise my dose every time. I was with him for 2 years because I so desperately wanted to get better and believe that he actually cared about me and my health. He didn’t even know my name after 2 years of being with him. Did not care about me whatsoever. He is rude, dismissive, condescending, and arrogant, not to mention the fact that he knows absolutely nothing about what he’s talking about. Do yourself a favor and don’t go to him ever. Save yourself the 2 miserable years I spent with him not being properly treated or getting better. My endocrinologist now is absolutely amazing, I don’t have to drive to another state to see her, she actually cares about her patients and their health, and I’m feeling the best I’ve felt in a long time.
