Dr. spoke with PA first. He adjusted upon my raising the issue and I appreciate that a lot. I would return and I would recommend him. But even in teaching hospitals, please speak to patient first.

Medical assistants are often the first faces patients see when they enter a medical facility. They help doctors and nurses run charts, check vital signs etc. However, the experience with this particular medical assistant was not a good one. Also, the wait time was long and after the medical assistant left, no one came back to explain the long wait. The first team resident that arrived after a 45 min wait in the consult room, reviewed the chart and had a cold disposition. The Dr. arrive a little over an hour late with 3 other residents/student in training. They should really ask the patient if it is ok to have so many in a team to be present especially if it's a first time the Dr. is meeting a new patient. A procedure was started with Dr. and then one of his team took over. This again should be discussed with the patient instead of assuming the patient is comfortable with so many different people involved with a procedure. Better communication and retraining of your medical assistant personel.
