      By the time he gets to you, you've forgotten your questions. He never discussed pain medication. He just released me!

      The doctor was very clear with his questioning and answers to my questions. I appreciated his detailed discussions about my treatment options.

      The doctor was helpful.

    • Patient Review

      -
      Positives: They did a thorough exam, and were willing to listen to every concern, even the ones I wasn't sure were related. They put in orders for two kinds of testing, and explained their current hypotheses of potential causes very well, in a way that I could understand. They gave me an overview of what treatment might look like based on how the tests come back. I felt a sense of confidence in their knowledge and abilities to diagnose and treat my problems.

      -
      He said one thing and then did not follow through with that. Seemed very insensitive to my problems like I was just another name and number on a page I still don't think that he is any worse than the last doctor who was the exact same way. We were hoping that he would be a big improvement as we always dreaded having to go to UK Neurology.
