I already knew my back hurt and it was way out of shape. I had x-rays taken of my hip at my hip doctor. They went over them with me and explained what was wrong. I did not learn any more with the PA and he could not make any plans or decisions. Left not knowing anything different than leaving the hip doctor. On to the MRI and back to you again and then I'm hoping to see the doctor.

Issue w/prescription sent to wrong pharmacy - probably from admission process in ER. When significant other gave information or ambulance EMT's worked out fine.

10/14/2021

Excellent.

10/03/2021

Everything was very good for myself, but an elderly lady who came in in wheelchair in serious pain a few minutes late for her appointment was told she had to reschedule. I was early so I asked if they could just take her because she's in pain. (I'm a nurse and would have gotten her seen somehow.) The person snapped at me 'Do you want to give up your appointment?' All others in this office treated me well and I had no complaints except as stated below which applies in general to medical offices in recent years.

10/01/2021

I wish my two care providers agreed on my injury.

09/24/2021
