This
doctor
is
by
far
the
worst
doctor
I
have
ever
seen.
In
fact
one
star
is
to
much
for
him!
I
am
new
to
California
having
just
relocated
from
Michigan.
I
am
a
Type
1
Diabetic
and
have
been
for
the
past
39
years.
I
have
years
and
years
of
history
with
doctors
where
I
am
previously
from.
I
was
looking
to
establish
care
with
a
new
doctor
near
my
new
home.
I
went
into
the
office
happy
that
I
was
able
to
get
in
so
quickly.
I
was
in
need
of
refills
for
a
couple
of
prescriptions
as
well
as
to
have
a
couple
of
other
ailments
looked
at.
No
one
in
the
office
asked
me
for
any
medical
history
in
fact
they
barely
asked
me
for
what
medications
I
was
on.
I
went
through
my
list
of
meds
with
the
nurse
and
explained
to
her
that
I
was
on
an
insulin
pump
for
my
diabetes.
She
did
not
know
what
an
insulin
pump
was.
which
she
asked
about
three
times,
so
she
told
the
doctor
that
I
refused
to
tell
her
what
treatment
I
was
using
for
my
diabetes.
The
doctor
came
into
the
room
picked
up
the
medication
bottles
that
the
nurse
had
taken
from
me
and
asked
me
what
I
was
there
for.
I
explained
that
I
wanted
to
establish
care
with
a
family
doctor
and
get
a
couple
of
things
including
refills
on
some
of
the
prescriptions
I
was
taking.
First
he
started
to
ask
me
why
I
was
taking
the
medications
and
then
before
I
got
anything
out
of
my
mouth
he
very
rudely
told
me
that
there
was
no
way
he
would
refill
any
of
those
medications
and
that
since
one
was
Lyrica
he
would
have
to
refer
me
to
pain
management
clinic.
Then
he
got
very
snotty
with
me
and
told
me
that
I
should
do
some
research
to
find
out
that
the
medications
I
was
on
were
not
meant
to
be
prescribed
for
as
long
as
I
have
been
taking
them.
Please
remember
that
he
doesn't
yet
know
why
I
am
taking
them
or
how
long
I
have
been
taking
them.
I
explained
to
him
that
I
would
need
to
get
a
referral
to
a
Endocrinologist
for
my
diabetes
and
I
would
like
to
talk
to
them
about
medications
that
I
need.
He
told
me
he
could
do
that
and
that
I
clearly
needed
some
blood
work
to
check
on
things
like
my
Cholesterol.
I
am
not
sure
why
I
"clearly"
needed
that.
By
the
end
of
the
conversation
I
was
in
tears
based
on
the
way
I
was
being
treated.
Then
he
asked
me
if
there
was
anything
else
I
needed
to
which
I
started
to
bring
up
one
of
the
reasons
I
came
in
that
day
and
he
smiled
and
began
to
walk
out
of
the
room.
At
this
point
realizing
that
he
wasn't
listening
to
me.
Then
told
me
he
would
order
some
testing
for
that
as
well.
He
never
checked
any
of
my
vitals,
never
took
any
medical
history,
never
discussed
other
treatment
options
and
never
ordered
any
of
the
tests
he
claimed
he
was
going
to
order.
Now
it
has
been
over
a
month
and
still
no
tests,
no
referrals
and
no
prescriptions.
I
would
like
to
point
out
to
this
doctor
who
so
rudely
told
me
to
look
up
the
details
of
my
medications
to
find
out
why
he
wouldn't
prescribe
them
that
he
should
look
up
the
side
effects
of
rapidly
discontinuing
use
of
a
medication
like
Lyrica
since
I
was
without
it
for
nearly
month.
The
most
frequently
recognized
side
effects
of
rapid
discontinuation
of
this
medication
include
diaphoresis,
tachycardia,
hypertension,
tremors,
diarrhea,
agitation,
paranoia,
auditory
hallucinations,
mutism,
self-mutilation,
and
suicidal
attempts.
Seems
like
that
is
a
pretty
huge
issue
considering
you
forgot
to
put
the
referral
to
the
pain
clinic
and
the
Endocrinologist
in.
WHATEVER
YOU
DO
STAY
FAR
AWAY
FROM
THIS
DOCTOR!!!!
No
desperate
need
for
care
is
worth
seeing
him.
