I have a few autoimmune diseases, such as Fibromyalgia, Ulcerative colitis, possibly Lupus, and…read moredefinitely Interstitial Cystitis, coupled with skin allergies, respiratory allergies, and other autoimmune-related problems. At 56, I have been through my share of rheumatologists. Unfortunately, there is no cure or remedy that will rid me of any of these issues. Dr. Gregory Borstad does his best to help me manage my symptoms, including extreme sensitivity to touch/pressure in certain areas (lower, inner calves, soles of feet, outer, upper thighs), muscle pain, exhaustion and fatigue, arthritis, depression (related to not feeling well), & headaches, along with GI problems. Dr. Borstad really wants to help, but he doesn't have a magic wand, just like none of the others do. But I do like him a lot because he listens and cares. He will often be open to prescribing medications that I ask for, such as biologics, but he will not provide pain management. (I have to get my hydrocodone elsewhere. I am only on one 10 mg tablet per day, cut into thirds or quarters, but he will not prescribe it.) Nonetheless, doctor hopping has become a total drag for me, because my illnesses are what they are. So I will stick with Carolina Arthritis Associates. They bill my BCBS insurance at a MUCH, MUCH more reasonable rate than Wilmington Health's rheumatologist, Heather Favorito, so my co-pay is not such a huge financial burden as it was with her--even though I did like her a lot. Also, Dr. Borstad's assistant, Farah, is very efficient and gets back to me in a timely manner. The nurse assistant whose place Farah took was just as lovely and efficient. It just sucks that I cannot live my life normally. I wish there were more answers.

Wendy SIMMONS, PA apparently has a habit of releasing you from her "care" if you try to hold her…read moreaccountable? Pattern of sending certified letters terminating you from her care including the 3 other MD doctors you've never seen before? Reason for release was I was being NON-COMPLIANT? NEW to me, I've done everything prescribed, daily Tymlos injection, 6-month calcium level check-up. I left a message asking when I was due for my next bone density test after taking drug for 10 months, I was anxious to know if it was working/creating bone (Fractured T8/Osteoporosis). Assistant returned my call from 9/10 on 9/14. Assistant left a message stating "we'll talk about that at the end of the month (9/28) and that they would do a bone density test then to decide if I should remain on the drug or not. Not satisfactory, when I called back I corrected the assistant as SIMMONS told me I needed the test done on the same machine (by Delaney) not Carolina Arthritis? I asked her what is going on over there? Had SIMMONS taken a just a glance at my chart, she would know this? I said "no wonder she has a 2 star rating out of 5" (truthful statement - Healthgrades.com) Not only that, but it turns out the appointment wasn't even for a bone density test, but a calcium level check which the drug mandates every 6 months. The assistant only reported to me what SIMMONS reported to her. Today I went in for the follow-up and was escorted out the back door by manager, Steve. He said I was notified the appointment was canceled in the letter, not true. He said "I made derogatory comments to the staff? Not truthful by any means. He has NO clue of what transpired. I was absolutely frustrated, but that's not being non-compliant nor was I derogatory to anyone by asking the assistant why she called and couldn't answer the my questions, nor did she report what the next treatment or appointment was for. I spoke the truth. I told the assistant I'm not coming in for a bone density test as SIMMONS told me it couldn't be done there? It has to be on the same machine it was originally taken on which was Delany Radiology! I went in for my appointment today, 9/28 and was escorted out the back door. Steve called me from the waiting room, once the door closed to the lobby he said we're not treating you any longer and waived the certified letter I had signed for at me. I asked if we could go somewhere in private so I could speak for a minute. We went down the hall and stood by a door that lead to outside. I asked if we could listen to the transcripts and he said "not available". He didn't care, just wanted me gone. He said I was derogatory to staff. He had absolutely no idea what happened, someone just told him to take care of it! I Left in tears. Takes months to be seen by doctors in Wilmington, not 30 days? WENDY SIMMONS should not be allowed to dismiss patients because she can't keep track of her patients, doesn't care and has no follow-through. CAROLINA ARTHRITIS should and the 3 doctors who signed the letter should take time to learn both sides of the situation as she obviously makes a pattern of these letters with no just cause! HOW MANY other patients beside me are now in harm's way due to the mandated testing by the drug Tymlos which I was denied today (9/28)? SAD day when I was terminated for being my best advocate! SHAME on Carolina Arthritis for allowing, supporting her behavior. Too much DRAMA in this office, ask her assistant. When will it STOP for the patient's good???

My visit to Dr. MacIntyre was to have staples/stitches removed after a previous surgery but because of how swollen my leg was, I was sent for an ultrasound. Dr. Neil MacIntyre absolutely ROCKS! My first encounter at Tinsley was with Jennifer at the front desk. Jennifer was exceedingly kind and offered to help me with our Tucker who rides alongside me everywhere. I was afraid of how long he'd be alone sitting with the A/C blasting. My concern was that our GMC SUV turns itself off automatically at 45 minutes. I hadn't planned on the extra trip and I simply wanted to get Tucker home and out of the extreme heat! Jennifer was an angel by immediately detecting how stressed out I was and then offering to bring Tucker into her office and she'd care for him while my issues were addressed. I found Jennifer to be so charming, she's one of the first lovely faces you see and is a lovely part of the medical staff at Tinsley Surgical. The radiologist technician Savannah was so efficient, patient, professional, and kind. I'm not as spry as I was years ago; Savannah's calmness made you feel that you didn't need to rush or that I was an inconvenience. Nurse Nina promptly recorded my vitals and gathered my history to put into the computer. We had a very comfortable and sweet conversation about random topics and she showed me her adorable zipper-compression socks which I quickly ordered. Then the highlight of the day...meeting Dr. Tinsley! The kindest, funniest, and most caring of doctors! Dr. Tinsley's late father treated my own father in the 1980s, both are and were exceptional doctors and Wilmington is blessed to have Ellis A. Tinsley, Jr., MD, FACS, FSVS.

He said he deals only in facts not fantasy like was making it up, and when I told him my nurse practitioner he said I am the doctor she is a nurse, WTF! I filed a complaint I am sure nothing will happen but my concern has he changed the orders of PA's and Nurses because he is the "Doctor" and put patients at risk in doing so, he is a man stuck with his refusal to always be educated about new and progressive medicine .

From the moment I walked into the office I felt very comfortable and Chris was very knowledgeable, understanding and easy to talk to. Their office is super clean and not "fussy" with hundreds of brochures pushing different programs on you. His staff (which includes his sweet wife) are top notch.

She did a battery of tests, which had never been done in my entire life, so she could see exactly what is going on inside my body. At my second appointment she had all the results from the reports and had created a plan to get me back to health. She went over every report in great detail and told me what was going on with my body. I became emotional finally realizing that there was an answer and a fix to some of my debilitating issues! I felt such happiness and relief you can't even imagine. I told her I was all in 100% to get my body healed and healthy again. I am 6 weeks into my healing process and feel a difference already! Most noticeably a huge increase in my energy and my brain fog lifting! I am looking forward to the months down the road with the continued long-awaited healing of my Body Mind and Spirit!

The woman did not ask if it was a good time for me to talk but dove directly into how they don't take insurance and how she doesn't know how I heard about them. Well I would tell you if you asked lol. She immediately started rattling off prices ($250 cash for first appointment, $180 for future appointments, yadayadayada). I don't really care about the cost of my healthcare. I care about the quality. She was snappy and not at all interested in answering my questions. Despite the bad impression I decided to go ahead and make an appointment to find out if they can actually help me. Lo and behold while they can call you at 6 pm on a weeknight, they never book appointments past 2:30. Huh? Why are you calling me at 6:15 if you stop working at 2:30. So after all that I couldn't even make a late afternoon appointment. I guess I'll stick with my nurse practitioner for now.
