Patient
My 1st visit was today. Had mysterious things happening to heart. Did heart monitor then ECHO. Waited three months to get in to this Dr in hopes of getting answers and having ECHO results gone over with me. Nurse spent more time with me doing EKG than Dr did for first time visit. Heck, he didn't even go over his offices own EKG results. Was super disappointed that three months and a $50 co-pay got me ZERO answers. I notified my primary immediately after this visit and requested referral to a Dr that will take more than 3 minutes for new patient. Man, this was so disappointing. What is happening to our health care? Dr told me make apt in 6 months, hopefully I live that long, went up front to make apt and was told he hasn't posted his schedule for that far out. What does that mean? Is he even gonna be practicing here in 6 months? Was put on a will call list. Ok! Also, insurance approved Stress Test two months ago. You'd think Dr would have wanted that done before he saw me. So, ECHO complete with no Dr going over it. Stress Test that's been approved by insurance for two months yet no one called to perform. Finally straw was EKG done in his office and he didn't take time to go over results. I'm sure insurance would love to know theyvare paying for rests that are being performed yet patients are hearing nothing from doctors about results. We are to get on their network, try to read report, and Google what we don't understand? Ugh!
