I was upset because doc asked me my health issues, which include hypertension and diabetes,he prescribed a pain med which i cant take due to my meds for hyper tension, so although staff was nice, i felt it was extremely unprofessional for the doctor to disregard my health history,and never actually ask what meds i was taking!! Oops could have killed me if my pharmacy hadn't picked up on the issue 🫤

The process was amazing and staff was too but the doctor didn’t seem as if she cared or wanted to work. She stated having a wheeze after a treatment is normal and in all my life of asthma I would be treated for wheezing to stop and given liquid medication a pump and other solutions to help. I still felt short of breath when leaving but hoping the medicine she prescribed will work. Overall I had a great experience with everyone else just not the doctor. I also overheard her not wanting to help the staff when drawing blood or even be in the room with the patient, it was unprofessional in my opinion
