I was a patient here for a few months, just for routine care/medication prescriptions. However, a…read morelittle more than a month ago, I got sick and went to Dr. Woodham to be seen, at the time for a sore throat. My strep and flu test were negative, so she said it just seemed like a bad cold. A few days later, I had developed a severe cough. I ended up going to the urgent care to see if I could get a chest X-ray. The urgent care I went to didn't have an X-ray tech that day, so they couldn't do much for me. My cough got worse and I called Desert Life primary care, letting them know that my cough had worsened and that I felt like it was in my chest, but they didn't have me come in for an appt. The day after, I went to the urgent care again, and they determined that I had an Upper Respiratory Infection. A few days later, I schedule a Telehealth appt with Dr. Woodham because my cough wasn't improving, I couldn't sleep, and I felt pretty awful. I had pain in my chest and felt like I had strained a rib muscle from coughing. She said it was just a bad virus going around. I asked if I should be concerned about getting tested for Valley Fever or anything else, but she said I would "be a lot more sick and coughing more" if I had something like that. She did send me for a chest X-ray however because of my chest pain. Two days later, I had another Telehealth appt with her to discuss the results of my X-ray. My X-ray didn't show that there was anything in my lungs at the time, so she just told me again that it was just a bad virus and basically that I just needed to wait it out. At that point, I was barely sleeping because of the coughing. She just offered to prescribe more medicine, but I felt like she seemed impatient with me and with me continuing to be concerned that I wasn't getting better. Two days after that, I became even more ill, with nausea, fever, chills, and zero appetite...and the coughing was REALLY bad. I decided to go to another doctor because I wasn't happy with the care at Desert Life Primary Care, and I also felt like Dr. Woodham didn't care about me as a person. As soon as I went to another doctor, after listening to my lungs (which Dr. Woodham never told me I should come into her office so that she could do that..), they immediately determined that I had severe Pneumonia. They also did a blood test to determine the cause, and put me on very strong antibiotics. They said that if I hadn't gotten on antibiotics when I did, I most likely would have ended up in the hospital. Turns out, after the results of my blood test came back, I had bacterial Pneumonia, and the type I had is commonly called "Walking Pneumonia". All in all, I was very ill for a total of almost a month, and from all the severe coughing, I ended up fracturing 2 ribs and the cartilage around my sternum had damage to it. I'm currently waiting on a CT scan for that. I called Dr. Woodham's office recently to ask for the results of my initial lung X-ray and I mentioned to the woman at the front desk that I ended up having severe Pneumonia and that I went to another doctor. The front desk woman didn't even offer an apology or anything, but was super short with me and told me that everything I had access to was on the portal. During the entire time, no one in Dr. Woodham's office ever followed up on me to see if I was ok, after they didn't hear anything from me after my last Telehealth appointment. I will never be a patient there again, and I am very unhappy with how the entire ordeal played out.
