I found him to be unknowledgeable about my conditions, disrespectful, and unhelpful. As I encountered no other staff (no nurse, no resident), I'm rating that based on my encounter with him alone. He took no history, so rather than get a whole picture of my situation from the onset of the appointment he received pieces throughout. He was constantly interrupting and talking over me so of the little medical history and symptoms I was able to get out, he likely absorbed very little. Not once did he ask which medications or supplements I was taking, which is, in my opinion, not only poor doctoring, but potentially dangerous. He was unaware of some basic medical conditions, to the point where I question how he has a medical degree, much less a specialty in Internal Medicine. He suggested outdated therapies and made inappropriate comments regarding my personal circumstances and had an overall lack of respect. Not only is he a waste of a patient's time and our money as taxpayers, but given that he fails to even ask for a list of medications or take a basic medical history, I'd go so far as to say that he's dangerous. I often go in to specialist appointments anticipating some level of a condescending attitude, but I at least expect some knowledge to back it up. This doctor is poorly lacking. I truly hope he takes these reviews as constructive criticism and works on his skills, his interactions with his patients, and deepens his knowledge of medicine-- lives, livelihoods, and quality of life are on the line.

Dangerously inadequate skills and knowledge. Disrespectful of allied health professionals.
