Patient Reviews
May 30, 2024
In my appointment, this Dr. Koepplinger’s behavior was rude, careless, and condescending. He listed a short list of what wasn't wrong with me and suggested no further options whatsoever. When I asked "Why do you think my knuckle is swollen and purple?" which I think is a pretty reasonable question as he's a hand doctor and it was the reason for the visit he said verbatim "I don't know what you're fishing for" and when i asked what that means he said "I won't answer questions about perceptions of your feelings." Then after previously saying I don't need further assessment he offered an ultrasound. When I asked what changed that made him believe an ultrasound would be helpful now he basically said my own peace of mind. Which isn't really a recommendation from him? He was short with me from the start, interrupted nearly everything I said, and did not take the full history on what happened to my hand which is literally negligent. When I shared that I am hoping for a respectful doctor-patient relationship and expressed that I felt condescended he said, "There's nothing I can do about that," and I think he was telling the truth! He seemed fundamentally incapable of care or respect. At least he was honest about his shortcomings - there's simply nothing he can do about your desire to be treated with respect. So if that's important to you maybe look elsewhere!
