I'm from out of town, brought in copies of my records, he refused to look at them, including tests, which diagnosed me with peripheral neuropathy. I also had spinal cord surgery to relieve some nerve pressure... You get the idea. He decided that it was hyperalgesia instead. Whether he was right or wrong, he weaned me off of pain medication in 4 weeks, which I found out later was absolutely wreckless because it should have been more like 4 months according to Mayo, Cochranes, pubmed, etc. Nobody can maintain their profession/job and household commitments from the damaged caused by such a steep curve; it's not a race. Long story short, he was also absolutely wrong about his diagnosis, should have read the records. Worst part is that he made himself absolutely unavailable. Would you hire a plumber or electrician who ignored your calls after screwing up the job? Steer clear, you'll find better. read more
