    Doc is very good at "taking care of business." He listens to what I have to say about what I think about my overall condition and corrected my personal diagnosis on occasion, and provides the "right diagnosis" based on his knowledge as a doctor.

    Very impatient. I'm [omitted] years old and I'm still able to communicate and be my best advocate. Paranoid about prescribing a medication for my anxiety. I have switched primary care providers. I will not recommend this doctor to anyone.

    He specifically said, face to face, he would prescribe an entirely suitable and effective antibiotic for a rather severe UTI. He even said that if that medicine did not work, he would prescribe a stronger one. My appointment with him was right before office closing, on the day before Thanksgiving. A few minutes later, I arrived at the pharmacy. They told me there that they had no record of anything being prescribed. They told me to call the doctor's office, which of course I couldn't do because it was closed. I was well aware that everything except an emergency room would be closed the next day, Thanksgiving. I called the after hours number on my insurance card and at first was told to wait until the day after Thanksgiving and call the office. I said I was in pain and one way or the other, the infection needed to be treated. They did contact an actual doctor, who was on her way driving home. She eventually got into the computer system and could see the antibiotic prescribed for me, and called it into the pharmacy. I started taking it immediately and took the entire prescribed course over the following week.
