I wish I could give less than one star. Please for your own safety do not go to this doctor. He is completely incompetent in my experience. More importantly if you are referred to him by workman's comp, refuse and seek your own doctor. I found out too late unfortunately that workman's comp can't pay him for a specific diagnosis but that can give him bonuses to get someone back to work sooner in spite of their injury.
I really hope that the man is just completely incompetent at his chosen profession and it's not in fact that he is of that loose moral, but I fear its a bit of both. When visiting him for severe work related concussion with such symptoms, as dizziness, trouble concentrating, trouble sleeping, headaches, neck aches, blank stares, balance issues, concentration issues, word loss, slow movements, slurred speech, and cognitive impairment. He continually tried to ship me back to work over and over again without even running tests. Once he finally ran tests, even though it's pretty common knowledge and a quick google search to determine that concussions can't be evaluated using ct scans and mris since nothing shows up on the tests, he used the negative results as further 'proof' to send me back. Finally diagnosing me with emotional and psychological problems that were no longer related to my work injury and he was very careful to add that workman's comp no longer had to pay for because of this, but then helpfully referred me back to him so he could somehow as a neurologist treat my 'psychological' issues.
Why don't we look at the American Academy of Neurology quick check card of concussion symptoms.. https://www.aan.com/uploadedFiles/Website_Library_Assets/Documents/3Practice_Management/5Patient_Resources/1For_Your_Patient/6_Sports_Concussion_Toolkit/Concussion%20reference%20sheet.pdf
Or take some time to read any of the scholarly resources you can find from google, or some dedicated research at a library if you prefer...
Regardless, not only did he I fully believe purposefully misdiagnose me in order to rake in the cash, he was the most insensitive, pushy, insulting, and condescending human being I've ever had to deal with in a professional setting let alone a health care setting. I guess he missed the import of the Hippocratic oath and instead of caring about his patient's welfare cares more about his cash flow.
THANKFULLY. I went to see and ACTUAL doctor and and ACTUAL neurologist, who diagnosed me with now post concussive syndrome, thanks to it not healing properly because of this horrifying man. This new diagnosis was likewise backed up by the state appointed independent medically examiner who was appointed when I had to fight workman's comp insurance in order to receive any money or medical coverage because they were holding up this man's misdiagnosis as their shield to deny my coverage.
If you are looking for a competent or capable neurologist, look anywhere else. read more
