How many hours in your life have you sat and waited for the doctor to see you? A bunch I will bet! Well I had a new experience today: I went in for my first chiropractic treatment, and it being my first visit I relied on my GPS to get me there. For some reason it took me the long way around to the office and following the GPS made me 8 minutes late with the traffic I encountered. The doctor refused to see me and told me to come back at 3:15, to which I said "I don't think so." Of course he did not tell me himself, he sent his wife/receptionist out to tell me. And incidentally, she was very kind and cordial, but he had taken the next patient waiting for their appt after mine into the room when I did not arrive precisely on time. I later wondered if the other patient was 15 minutes early because they had already experienced his disregard! Ha! Anyway, VERY unprofessional behavior. I was also told that the visit was 30 minutes, when in fact it was only 15 minutes. But the dr could have asked me to wait for 5 minutes and give me the next appt since he had given my appt away. For other reasons I decided to cancel all my future appointments with him; I needed further advice on my condition before trying his new treatment. However, after the way I was treated today I am not sure I would have wanted to return for any future treatment. He is very young in years and in business and obviously has a lot to learn. I am not speaking against his ability as a chiropractor, only his practice with patients. One thing is for sure, if you don't want to be punished like a middle-schooler, be sure to be right on time, even if you have a car wreck on the way! read more
