Dr. Quarrier doesn't allow time for questions. My upcoming procedure may be routine for him, but this is a first for me. I have lots of questions about what will happen and what I will need for aftercare. I felt rushed and unable to get the information I need. I get more feedback from looking up on the internet.

3.0

He told me what he wanted to say ( which is fine) but was not particularly interested in my questions and concerns. He could have showed more empathy and not brushed off my feelings of concern and worry about the unknown prospects. Also, he was not open to discussing how I can help myself in the months between that appointment and one of the two tests he ordered.
