This guy is a joke! Very RUDE, very controlling. I once asked staff what my blood pressure was after she took it and she told me I have to ask the doctor, she cannot disclose that to me. What's the big deal??

Once They left me in room for over an hour waiting. Every visit, the doctor reads my records, does not explain anything to me. Every time I went there, he was very short, rude. I'd ask him about my thyroid numbers and he would prescribe my meds and walk out the room and didn't explain anything to me.

One time I showed up there with my five-year-old daughter, not realizing no kids allowed in office. The staff told me I could NOT be seen with her in the exam room and wouldn't have her wait alone in lobby. I explained that I had nobody to watch her and please let me be seen this one time because I was out of my thyroid meds and could not get more until I saw the doc. They refused to see me. I had to drive my daughter to a babysitter, took me an hour to go drop her off and get back to office. When I came back and they saw me, I was in room for five minutes. How rude they couldn't have just let my daughter be in there. They made me go hour out of my way to go drop her off for five minute appointment. What a waste of time! And how rude the doctor couldn't be a little more understanding.

I got yelled at once for looking at my cell phone when the doctor walked into my exam room. I thought the sign on wall said to have ringer off. He told me he would kick me out if I didn't turn it off all the way. I tried to explain and say sorry, and he pointed at sign and said he'd kick me out. SO RUDE!

Then Doc was prescribing me propranolol for the hypherthyroidism, I went in one day before I left on vacation and I had no meds left and was going to get them refilled. He didn't tell me anything and walked me to counter with my prescription for my Levothyroxine. I realized he didn't give me new prescription for the propranolol and I told staff he needed to give me other prescription. They went and talked to him, came back and said no, He cut my meds off and told me I needed to see my primary care doctor to get more propranolol because he doesn't think I need it anymore. He never explained that to me in exam room or told me he was stopping it so we could discuss why. I explained to staff that I was leaving out of country for couple weeks and to at least give me two weeks worth of meds so I don't have withdrawls. He told me before to NEVER stop taking it abruptly. Staff went and talked to him and came back and told me He refused to give me any more propranolol and told me I needed to go to emergency room or urgent care to get refilled. And he was the doctor that prescribed it to me. You'd at least think he would wean me off the meds properly. I had no meds for days before I was able to see a physician and I was having rapid heart beats and bad headaches because of it. I WOULD NEVER go back to him and NEVER recommend him to anyone. Very rude and very controlling. I feel sorry for his staff. He treats them very poorly. This doctor does not care about his patients one bit!!
