Doctor explained his evaluation and possible solutions that an MRI he ordered will help define. Showed me how to tape my two fingers together to help in the interim. Very impressed with doctor and his staff.

Very good experience

The only constructive criticism I would offer is the door to the office I was in for the procedure was left open while I was being prepped for the surgery (waiting for my cheek to become numb, for instance). People walked by a number of times while I was laying back on the operatory table/chair. More than likely these were all professional staff, however, another patient could easily walk by and this felt a little awkward and unnecessary to me.

Had all of my questions answered and concerns addressed. Was not with a typical care provider but a surgeon to discuss scheduling a surgery.

The doctor said I had gout and he could not help me. Told me to see my primaryCare doctor and have him refer me to a Rheumatologist.

They have a terrible scanner to read credit cards. If it won't scan CC, they can not type in CC#. This Is old school tech. I Like to pay my bill while I am there. I HAD THE CASH, but the would only accept exact amount. No change. Again old school.

Nurse was ok. Dr came in and left door open, stated you are a 68 yr old woman, asked what do you do for a living? So you had a Er visit for a laceration. He took a look and said I don't think it need fixing so came back in a year. 5 minutes and I'm out. Ps his white coat was dirty.
