I've been Dr. Schuman's patient for many years and feel he is losing his edge. There are 2 concerns. I have Crohn's and called about whether I needed a colonoscopy and told me I was past due. Other good doctor's I use follow my care and contact me when things are needed. Much worse, his office shifted to a different prep which was ordered for me. I have stage 4 kidney disease and my nephrologist was alarmed that this was prescribed and when I called his office I was told that this was done for all patients. This is unsound and dangerous. It is up to the ordering doctor to prevent patients from getting medications that are contraindicated for a medical condition. I also have found his post-precedure processes rushed and find it difficult to communicate with him. Again, my other doctors provide portals to view the care and to communicate with the doctor.
