Lyons is not my main provider, but I saw her that day to get a referral and I was told no other providers were available that day. She listened to my problem, but didn't do a whole lot to help me solve it. I explained that the pain in my jaw had been getting worse in the past couple days and asked if the referral to a surgeon could be expedited after she told me it would take at least 4-5 days to be processed. She said no, that's how long the process takes. I then asked if she knew if my swollen gums were possibly caused by a bacteria and if I could get anti-inflammatory medication to help as I wait for a referral. She was short with me, answering only with, "I don't know. I wouldn't know if it's bacterial." She was completely unsympathetic and slightly argumentative, not doing anything to make me less worried and scared about this whole ordeal. I also found out that she wrote "routine" instead of "urgent" for the referral status she put in for me, even after I'd told her this is an emergency and I had been continuously taking pain meds to relieve my pain for the past week.
