Dr Jordan Smith made me feel like my pain and concerns were dumb. I woke in the morning knowing something was wrong with my hips. They didn't work at all. I was extremely worried. For me it was scary and made an appointment immediately. I asked Jordan Smith for an x-ray his answer was... physical therapy and then we will see about an xray. Im ok with PT except i knew there was something terribly wrong. I begged him. Still NO! After he walked out and shut the door he opened it again and stuck his head in the room and said...do you really think I'd give you an xray before PT? Xrays cost too much to do before PT. He was laughing. I felt so belittled, unheard bullied, ect. the entire time. He also gave me a lecture about his time in the service for making sure people out of treatment for substance abuse stay sober... all I said was it hurts and feels different from ever before. Everyday was a mound of worry especiallyat PT. She wasn't hearing me either. I wondered if they spoke because the PT therapist was irritated with me because i kept saying the same thing... this doesn't feel right . And my hios feel like they aren't moving correctly. Nobody listened. I felt so alone and lost with no direction. I couldn't walk far. I had to go up stairs and hills backwards. It ended up I had torn both of my hips labrums. And tried to live like that for 1 uear and 8 months until i went to the chiropractor and had x rays.
I went back to see him one last time, mostly so he would ask about my crutches and he did. My response... remember when you made me do PT before an xray? I really needed that xray, both of my labrums are torn. His response... that's too bad. Im sorry. He left and did it again... He stuck his head back in the door and said... I would've made the same decision today!... i have never felt so small. I've never met such a bully for a Dr. I felt like a nobody. He made it very obvious how proud he is of himself, as I cried. read more
