Went to see a doctor here for severe knee pain, he recommended me 4 weeks of physical therapy - after a week I was in so much pain I could not continue, THEN he suggested I see a rhumetologist... all without ever looking at an MRI of my Knee. My knee still hurts so bad, I feel bad for my family having to listen to me. The doctor not only said there is no swelling in my knee, but then prescribed me an NSAID to "help the pain"..... nsaids reduce swelling, if there is no swelling, then why did he prescribe it? If i need to see a rhumetologist, why am I paying for physical therapy prior to the doctor properly diagnosing my knee? He was -very- quick to take a SECOND set of xrays in a week, but never sent me for the MRI I was expecting. When I talked to him on the phone he said "well after reviewing your chart" obviously he hasn't the slightest idea who I am, and i saw him a week ago. I felt like I was not taken seriously at all, and treated like a child. I hate when doctors come across as arrogent, and dismissive the way he was. I am forced to wonder if he was trying to milk my insurance. It would be nice to see a doctor who takes me seriously once in a while, instead of trying to get in and out of that little room in under 15 minutes so they can bill for several hours. read more
