Patient Reviews
Aug 04, 2018
This woman should have her license revoked. I was in the hospital for over a week with her refusing to allow me to be seen by a specialist. She instead accused me of drug seeking. Guess what? I had a massive infection and if I had not gone over her head to get surgery I could be fully disabled today. She also accused me of being rude to her! Stay away from her.
