Molly Wheatley failed me as a medical care provider maliciously neglecting and endangering my health
. I was in an accident where I broke my ankle in three places and was in two hospitals and a nursing home for surgery and recovery. I still have serious problems with my ankle and nerve damage. For the month I was in the hospital ,neither Legacy Health nor Molly Wheatley contacted me to help me get home or even get a wheelchair. I was sent home with just a walker and no support. The people at Legacy were nasty about the mix-up. It took three days to get the wheelchair. M. Wheatley never contacted me to discuss my situation. If I called, I would get the answering machine of the medical assistants. I had to rely upon my home health nurse to force them to treat me for a UI tract infection I picked up in the nursing home. Every step of the way, Legacy let me know I was not important and Molly Wheatley was only available for a few minutes about medications.
The Legacy Manager refused to send a note to the postmaster so my mail could be brought to my door. I was housebound.I had to threaten to report them to the higher-ups to get the note written. I had to call the police to get my rent check mailed. Where was Molly? M. Wheatley never intervened to help or check up on my welfare.
in March, when I could drive again, at my appt she was cold and rude . I tried to tell her about the band of pain
and numbness in my ankle and she said " I thought you said you were in pain" in a mean accusatory way. She briefly glanced at my foot and ankle, she had no understanding of what was wrong. She just said you might always have nerve damage. She said I will give you some over-the-counter topical pain.killer. Not Helpful at all.
She refused to let me see a Neurologist to map the nerve damage. She was angry and rude. She wasnt kind about it, she was harsh :" you aren't going to see a neurologist .
. M W prescribed muscle relaxants when I got home from the nursing home in December 2020 for pain. I took them as needed. I had seven major falls after I got home dec 2020 November 2021. MW never asked if I had any falls. I had dizziness which I thought was from the nerve damage. when I went to my last appt with her in the summer of 2021. She also tried to get me on anti-depressants for pain, which I never took.
I was seeing double and almost falling over . I thought I had a new illness. I didnt talk to her about it because she was of no help for any problem. I remembered that the label said may cause dizziness. I quit taking them and stopped having those symptoms. Why did she give me those pills when I was in danger of falling down from dizziness .
My last visit she didn't even ask about my ankle or about any health problems. She was like a robot. I was supposed to have foot exams every time for pre-diabetic.She is a dietician but never inquired about my eating habits for diabetes.
After she quit I found Legacy had a foot and ankle clinic in Portland that I should have been referred to over a year ago. She didn't care. I felt like she hated me. She should not work with patients. If she didnt want me for a patient she should have said so because she worked to harm my health, not heal me M Wheatley does not have the medical knowledge or compassion to work with patients. read more
