Patient Reviews
Nov 07, 2025
Laziest doctor I have ever had. No patient advocacy towards other departments needed for proper diagnosis. Unreceptive to anything I had to say and made decisions/diagnoses based off of just a few questions. Came to conclusions far to quickly, medicated on first visit and said to live with it essentially. 0/10 would not reccomend.
