Dear Dr. Muthu and Anna Glickman, I am writing regarding my…read moreappointment with you on August 19, 2026 because I left that visit very concerned about how my anemia and severe iron deficiency were being addressed. Before my appointment, I had been told by your PA that my laboratory results were "almost perfect" and that I had only minor anemia. When I reviewed my actual laboratory results, however, I was very concerned. My results included: * Hemoglobin: 10.5 * Hematocrit: 32.5 * RBC: 3.87 * Iron: 24 * TIBC: 395 * Iron saturation: 6% * Previous ferritin: 29 I do not believe these results should simply be characterized as minor anemia without addressing the underlying iron deficiency and because I already have significant heart issues. Anemia makes the heart work harder, which I simply do not need. I also have a very significant history that I tried repeatedly to explain during my appointment. Following my gastric bypass, I have had problems absorbing iron for approximately 26 years. During that time, I have required iron infusions approximately every two to four years. Oral iron has not been an effective way for me to correct or maintain my iron levels. I came to you specifically because I recognized the pattern I have experienced repeatedly over the years. I was trying to explain that history and why I believed I needed an iron infusion. Unfortunately, I felt that I was repeatedly talked over and was not given a reasonable opportunity to explain my history or my concerns. Much of the discussion seemed to focus on defending the PA's earlier assessment rather than listening to what I was trying to tell you and considering the laboratory evidence. At the time, I continued to press the issue of receiving an iron infusion, and I understood that you had ultimately agreed to address the matter by referring me to hematology. I have since learned, however, that the referral was not actually for an iron infusion or treatment. It was simply a referral for a second opinion. That distinction is extremely important. I am now facing a delay of several additional weeks before I can potentially receive the treatment I believe I need, while I am struggling significantly with fatigue and difficulty getting through the day. This is not merely an academic disagreement over laboratory numbers. I am experiencing the consequences of the anemia and iron deficiency while waiting for treatment. I understand that you may not agree that an infusion is the appropriate treatment, and ultimately the hematologist may make a different recommendation. What concerns me is that I was not given a meaningful opportunity to have my history and concerns considered before treatment was deferred. I have lived with this recurring problem for 26 years. I understand that my experience does not replace medical judgment, but it should be part of that judgment--especially when my current laboratory results are consistent with the problem I have repeatedly experienced in the past. I am not writing this letter because I expect you to agree with every treatment I request. I am writing because I believe physicians need to listen carefully when a patient is describing a longstanding, recurring medical problem, particularly when the patient's history and current laboratory results support the concern. I will be seeking a new physician for my ongoing care. However, I wanted you to know why I am doing so and, more importantly, to encourage you and your PA to reconsider how you communicate with patients who are trying to tell you that something is wrong. Patients should not have to fight to be heard. In my case, I recognized the symptoms and the laboratory pattern because I have experienced this problem repeatedly for many years. I tried to explain that to you, but I did not feel heard. The result has been a delay in addressing a problem that I believe needs treatment while I continue to struggle with significant fatigue. I hope you will take this feedback in the constructive spirit in which it is intended and consider whether this situation could have been handled differently. Sincerely, Connie Coats

The day before the appointment they called and said they "accidentally" double booked. Next appointment would be another month. I explained I was out of my life saving medication. Left me on hold after I asked for the name of the practice manager. When the person came back on she stated she was not allowed to give out the name or phone number of the office manager. Put me on hold again, and the lead scheduler came on and said they could keep my appointment. Does not seem like they care about the health of their patients at all. Would prefer to reschedule with another doctor but am out of medication. What is wrong with customer service. Update: this doctor is great. The scheduling is off site and it seems to be a problem with that department. The staff who actually work here are wonderful and caring. The doctor spent a long time with me and was pleasant.again, when you schedule the people are rude and unprofessional, you are better off walking in and making an appointment.
