I really appreciate the “rule out the worst case” first approach. I’ve been seeking care for my headaches for a month now and today was the first time I felt like I had a doctor who was looking out for me completely.

When Dr Shepard came into the examination room I was sitting in the chair by the door, he spoke, went to the computer and asked perfunctory questions from that distance (muffled at times by his mask) never asking me to get on the examination table. He tested my strength from the chair. I can only assume he based his 'exam' on the input from the medical student's exam.. I felt quite uncomfortable and thrown-off by this impersonal doctor visit.Dr Shepard had stated I should take an over the counter supplement but I had to contact his office, via MyChart, after reviewing the 'After Visit Summary' that did state the dosage. Everything about this visit was unusual and not one I've ever experienced in my many years of coming to NW.

I feel like he was in a rush in the end to get to next appointment and didn't really elicit time for questions. Outside of telling me to take caffeine, there wasn't really a good game plan put into place for if I have another bad headache.
