I am used to being seen quickly and getting an appointment with a doctor in a reasonable amount of time. I understand it is different here. I have used their emergency room once and was severely misdiagnosed. It turns out I actually had to have back surgery when they kept telling me I was basically making a big deal out of "nothing "and i'm sure they thought I was seeking pain meds. Imagine my surprise when I went to a doctor in the Los Angeles area and he told me what idiots they were in the emergency room. I was scheduled for back surgery right away. As you can see, I still haven't gotten over it lol .So never go to their emergency room. That being said ,the orthopedic center is completely different. I had no problem getting an appointment after my PMD sent a request for an orthopedic to see my knee. I was seen on time and everything was very professional. Dr.Diltz was great. I felt like a fool coming in for what I thought wasn't a big deal, but it turns out it could be. He never talked down to me, never made me feel like I didn't know what I was talking about like some doctors do. I have a follow up with him to review my MRI and I am looking forward to it. It's nice to have a Doctor Who listens to you and has some compassion. The only reason I dropped a star was NOT for the doctor. It was just the wait time. I had to wait about a month and a half to get an appointment with the doctor. I'm definitely not used to that, but like I said it's different here in the desert. I highly recommend Dr.Diltz. Also, their MRI staff in their orthopedic center is fabulous. So professional! saw me on time. They were great. Absolutely recommend

So here I am, 5 months later and finally seeing an orthopedic doctor about it. The office staff was extremely nice. However, when Dr. Pooyan came in the treatment room, with a couple students, the floor was his. Not much space in there for me, the patient. He would ask me a question, then interrupt me. A couple times I seriously only got 4 words in. He simply wore me down. He asked if they had X-rays of my hand, which I had hoped he looked at already. But no. He glanced at the X-ray there. Glanced is not an exaggeration. I felt as if I was being cross examined. In the end, he said I probably have arthritis and the trigger isn't bad enough. I was then dismissed. He heard what he wanted and that was it, mind you what he wanted wasn't what I said, or tried to say. Example : He asked if I had shots in my fingers for it and I said yes. Two fingers, two shots. Yet, from then on, he stated I had two shots per finger. There simply wasn't room for or time for me. He simply didn't listen and I finally gave up. I wanted to leave. Obviously, I left with questions. I have no clue how to help it. My copay is high, and I absolutely feel ripped off. Even if he thought he could help, I don't think I'd return. Guess I'm of to Mexico, because it hurts so bad that it wakes me up at night. I've taped two fingers together for over a month now and I feel pathetic.
