The PAs and Doctors routinely run at least an hour behind schedule, usually longer than that. After the already-sick patient has had to endure waiting in the too-small, too-loud bacteria-laden waiting room (It feels as though you're stewing in germ-ridden air) long enough to contract at least two more illnesses (Is this on purpose? I can't prove otherwise...), they're then eventually called back by an impatient go-betweener who asks private questions and weighs them publicly, and then they're finally taken back to a boring, run-down, overly-Christianized storage/waiting room and left to hope they don't die while wasting up to another hour waiting for someone to remember that they're there. The PAs and Doctors in this establishment might be nice for all I know, but as I've only ever been in the presence of one for less than 10 minutes at a time, I wouldn't know. Questions are asked but not enough time is ever allowed for the patient to actually ANSWER those questions - the answers which might actually tell the PA/Doctor what is truly wrong with the patient. The PA/Doctor then makes an apparently telepathic diagnosis which is neither discussed with nor truly revealed to the patient (the patient being the one who actually has to live with the PA/Doctor's off-the-cuff "diagnosis") and then the patient is sent on their disease-ridden way with no information, newly acquired viruses, and Rx's for expensive and potentially inappropriate drugs. I'm not sure what the PAs and Doctors actually do at this establishment. They're obviously not spending time with the patients.

If I ever need to see a vascular surgeon again, he's the guy I'll see. Lenoir is fortunate to have such an asset to the community, and seeing he's got a lot of family in these parts, I'm sure he won't be moving to a new area anytime soon.

First of all, I went to Dr. Purcell because I thought the raised area in my left groin was vascular…read morein nature. Having had vascular issues my entire life, I wanted to rule out another one before seeing a general surgeon. Dr. Purcell told me it was not vascular, but a hydocele. He said it wasn't a big deal unless it bothered me, which it did not. Here I am 4 years later with an infected incarcerated inguinal hernia. It started when my stationary bike dropped one night while excercising. No big deal, I got off and raised it, jumped back on and finished my miles. Withing about 30 minutes, I was in horrific pain lower left abdomen. To make a long story short: 4 ER visits, diverticulitis, hernia surgery, and a bowel blockage with four days "nothing by mouth." They said everything was inflamed: my uterus, small and large bowel and diaphragm. Untold amounts of vomiting and diarrhea. Now a gut that returns to d and v unless I eat certain foods. He should have told me to see a general surgeon.
