I moved to the Bountiful area and looked forward to establishing eye care for an on going condition. I told the doctor that I had an adverse reaction to a medication and he told me to trust him, he does everything "text book" and injected the medication (at a high dosage). During a follow up visit with my daughter present, the doctor said, "I have never seen this bad of reaction." I said, "Maybe some patients aren't text book?" I have missed three weeks of work and was referred to a corneal specialist in the UEC group due to the adverse effects of the injection. Today the corneal specialist used forceps to remove a protective contact that had slightly adhered to my eye. It hurt. I didn't over react, just quietly said ouch twice. The doctor said, "I've used the numbing drops, so..." So what? I imagined the pain? I will continue follow up for the damage done through another doctor, medical group.
The take away here is that you know yourself best and doctors are human, sometimes arrogant Walk if you need to, sooner rather than later.
The staff at the Ogden location was awesome! There is a weird culture with the staff at the Bountiful location. It's day and night. read more
