Patient Reviews
May 21, 2018
He completely blew off my daughters symptoms and when I pleaded with him he stood up and said you're free to find someone else as he motioned to the door. He wouldn't order any scans and said he didn't need to see her again. 3 months of agonizing pain later, after vomiting blood, my daughter was admitted to memorial Herman for a month. They found extensive demylinating brain lesions and her spinal cord was repaired but she has permanent damage. This guy is a narcissistic, egotistical joke!
