, Dr Avril is rude & a jerk. He doesn't review charts to get history of patients before coming in & he has God syndrome & acts as though he knows everything. Dr Avril said to me that at patient with chronic pain who's had 3 lumbar surges with rods, bolts, & screw in their back needs to be taken off their "as needed pain meds" bc those meds are too "druggie". I'm, Dr God pain is the 5th vital sign & should be addressed and managed just as blood pressure! Mind you bottles were brought in showing that this patient doesn't even take those meds frequently & he could also check himself to see how often those meds are being filled. I'm wonder if it's because she's a minority woman he feels as though she has no pain. I went in to see why a stroke patient isn't on stroke meds AND still THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. He kept referring to neurology which takes months to get an appointment in the mean time the family is reporting to him mental status and physical decline in this patient. This doctor appears to be incapable of magnifying stroke patients and refused to prescribe panic or any other medication for strokes, but is concerned about pain meds on a patient that has had hardwar in their body since the late 90s. The medical board will hear about this. This place is in the dumps now. No consistency or continuity or care. I wouldn't take a rat here for care. The office staff is so friendly but the medical providers doctor, NP, PA is TRASH!!! Runnnnnnn read more
