First off the provider walked in and asked me, "How can I help you?" Then I was confused because most of the time the doctor has gone over my records because I was referred to this provider. I told him I was there for my MRI results and he talked back very sarcastically and told me that the lab report was fine. He went over it fast. I dont appreciate driving and hour to and from that day, and for the doctor to say How can I help you. I wanted my results and I have already been worried. The provider was not very accommodating. He had his eyes closed while talking to me which is not professional at all. I believe you look at your patient when they are worried you show them with care and concern. He did ask me to follow up so Im glad because I want reassurance of my results. He didnt even have the image. I was referred and this provider was not prepared to see me and acted as if he didnt know the reason for my visit. I have been nervous up until my appt. I just feel like the doctor didnt take me serious. The medical staff was amazing. Im just disappointed in how I received results and they want me to go get the disc and Im not driving much so thats inconvenient that they ask me to go get the disc of my image. Thank you.
