I made an appt to see Dr Taras because of his experience with tendinitis. I have had chronic tendinitis for 2 years and have been through therapy. I also have a wrist issue that feels like a trapped nerve. Wait time-1 hr past appt, then his fellow comes into pre examine me and his specialty is PLASTIC Surgery-not the expertise I was seeking and tells me I have something called "tennis elbow"- Thanks Genious I KNEW that. Dr Taras finally appears long enough to twist my arm and tell me he wants a therapy eval. I say what about my wrist and he adds an xray (mind you there is NO acute injury) and walks out leaving me w plastic fantastic. I say to him don't you think an MRI would be better bc I've had wrist xrays and he states no you need a fresh set. See you in 2 weeks...not! Oh and parking cost $17.00
So unless you are a Phillie or a VIP or have something I guess not as "trivial" as tennis elbow go see a true Physician.
Oh by the way I'm a Physician Assistant and would NEVER respond to a patient like this. read more
