The nurse practitioner I saw was very nice, but the actual doctor was not. He just came in and told me all the procedures he ordered for me without even discussing it with me and I wasn't given the option to before he was right out the door

Maybe she did not feel well or maybe she did not sleep well the night before but she came into the room with an attitude. Neither my husband! My daughter on the phone nor I thought she was considerate.
