Came to see Dr. Dishman for digestive issues. Her treatments were somewhat helpful, although I kept…read moreregressing. I would get better, then worse, then better, then worse. Every time I brought up an issue I was having, the answer was always to add another supplement to my already huge arsenal. I actually think the amount of supplements I was taking was actually taxing my body and my digestive system further. I also didn't like that the first time I emailed her, I got a message back saying she might charge me to respond to that email and any future emails. I understand her time is limited, but possibly getting charged for emailing a question was a deterrent for me in asking questions and seems a bit unethical. My biggest complaint, however, was her demeanor. I found her attitude to be rude, condescending, and arrogant. Eye-rolling during an in person appointment once. The worst was the time I was having a phone consult with her and she went over this long list of treatments she wanted me to start, and at the end, I asked, just to make sure, if all of them were ok for me to take while breastfeeding. Apparently, she either forgot (even though we discussed it at my initial intake) or neglected to check her notes before writing her recommendations. She reacted by getting flustered first, then actually said to me, "Well I guess you could have stopped breastfeeding by now" as if that was an excuse! And it's not like she even asked if I was still nursing! If I hadn't asked, I might have paid for and started taking things unsafe for my baby. I was horrified. If I hadn't been so desperate for help, I would have definitely stopped seeing her right after that. Another time, she refused to give me lab results until I scheduled an appointment with her. She also asked me once to get lab tests that I had already paid for and done, and we had even emailed about it. Again, just not checking her notes in advance. I dreaded my appointments with her, she gave me anxiety to be around because of her aggressive nature, and I got the feeling she was mostly concerned with making money and not taking care of her patients. I never got the impression she really cared. No bedside manner whatsoever. She has since moved out of Raleigh to join another practice and the only communication about the move was via several long, convoluted, poorly written emails. I was surprised at the level and style of communication from someone who has so many advanced degrees. She never mentioned the move to me in person. I just thought it was odd. It came across like she couldn't wait to get out of NC. I'm so glad I made the decision to stop seeing her and wasting my time and money. I have had much better, long-lasting, less expensive success with acupuncture and Chinese herbs.
