    I had to leave my doctor of many years when I got Medicaid and he was in Missouri. I met Dr. Noland…read morewhen he was the doctor doing my Social Security disability determination. I was impressed by him and went I needed a Kansas primary care doctor was happy to see he is doing family practice. Only problem I've had is he's also a doctor for the Royals and getting an appointment in season can be tough. He's carrying and understands how much I hate needles so only wants blood when it's absolutely necessary. For me with my medical problems, it works out his area is sports medicine. Got me into the right specialist when I needed one.

    I had a very distressing follow-up appointment with Dr. Noland after a five-day hospitalization. I…read morecame in needing help with medication refills, leave paperwork, and follow-up imaging for an adrenal nodule found on my hospital CT. I tried to explain that my concern was the fragmentation of my care and the difficulty of coordinating issues involving several providers. During the discussion, I felt repeatedly interrupted and spoken to in a defensive and condescending manner. One disagreement involved my leave paperwork. Dr. Noland stated that another provider had already completed my FMLA paperwork and said the documentation had been written by GI. He then pulled up a document in my chart. I clarified that it was a regular hospital work note, not the Hartford FMLA paperwork I was requesting, and that it had been written by a hospitalist rather than GI. In response, he emphasized that he had been doing his job for a long time and knew the difference. When I attempted to continue clarifying the situation, he told me to stop interrupting him. I then stopped speaking and shook my head while listening because I disagreed with what was being said. He responded, "You can shake your head all you want." I felt placed in a situation where both verbally correcting inaccurate information and silently expressing disagreement were treated as disrespectful. The interaction felt hostile and intimidating rather than collaborative. He also repeatedly focused on my previous request for possible future leave, while I was attempting to explain that my current request concerned an actual five-day hospitalization. When I asked how unpredictable intermittent leave might be estimated for a condition such as migraines, he initially said the comparison was irrelevant, then explained that leave would be based on a documented pattern. When I asked about medication refills, he shook his head and said in a tone I perceived as sarcastic, "Oh, I suppose they told you to follow up with me for that too." They had, and being repeatedly redirected between providers was the exact concern I was attempting to explain. He later repeatedly told me that the situation was not my fault and said he would complete the paperwork and submit the refills. I was also concerned by how the appointment ended. At the beginning of the visit, Dr. Noland discussed the adrenal nodule and indicated that an MRI might be the better imaging option. After the conversation became increasingly tense, he left the room without personally completing that discussion. His nurse later returned and told me that a CT had been ordered instead. When I asked about the earlier MRI discussion, she had to leave and clarify the plan with him. She returned and said that he wanted to begin with a CT and go from there. He did not return to explain the change directly. Although my paperwork was ultimately completed, my refills were submitted, and imaging was ordered, I left feeling unheard and intimidated. I immediately requested to transfer to another primary care provider. This was the most upsetting healthcare encounter I have experienced.
