Patient Reviews
Feb 02, 2023
It takes over 6 months to get in and my wait time was 1 hour past my appointment time. I left with zero answers and completely aggravated and felt very offended. There is a reason other than stress that my legs are weak and my knee’s buckle on me causing falls. She listed a possible cause of “stress”. I asked her if “stress” would cause my legs to be worse after a PT session causing me inability to walk at all? I was beyond frustrated and she completely ignored my Neurosurgeons suggestion of a muscle biopsy. I’ve only had a blood test checking for MG and to check some other things and she ordered a EMG.
