Came in in August last year with a severe sore throat that made it difficult to swallow. He does a strep test, says it's negative so obviously I don't have strep and its just allergies. It progressively gets worse. A week later I go to school and now I can barely swallow and can't breathe because I'm coughing so hard. Lady at the health services does a strep test, says it's negative but I definitely have strep because I have the tell tale sores and other symptoms. She tells me that there is a strain of strep that doesn't show up on strep tests but any doctor should see the sores and diagnose it anyways. Great! I developed bronchitis because it went undiagnosed so long, and 9 months later I still have lung problems as a result of it. I lost so much money in hospital bills and inhalers because this idiot didn't know or care that strep b is a thing. And this is not an isolated incident. I knew I was stupid to go to him but I did anyways because my dad was willing to give him a second chance so I figured it was an honest mistake when he misdiagnosed my mom with, you guessed it, allergies even though it was stage four lung cancer. I have absolutely no idea how this guy got a specialization in pulmonology when every single lung problem is allergies to him. Do not go to him if you want to actually get healthy.
