i went to see Dr Singer due to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. I had an EMG done that showed that I had severe CTS, and I waited almost a month for an appointment. Once I got there for my 2:30pm appointment i was told that he was running about and hour behind. I didnt get called back until 4:45pm. Once I was back there he didnt even look at my hand. He acknowledged that I had pretty severe CTS along with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. Told me that it was all because i over weight and not because I am on a computer 9 hours a day for work. He said normally he would recommend cortisone injections and surgery but he wouldn't do anything for me until I lost about 45-50lbs. He was very argumentative and rude about the entire thing. Its safe to say that I will never send anyone to him. He is one of the worst doctors that I ever met.
