He diagnosed my issue which is why I came , but did not explain to well how to deal with the issue I do have but to use an over counter medication which I had been and didn’t make it go away. I felt he didn’t treat me as he well as an existing patient and a bit rushed

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
They're so fast. I always bring a book to read while I'm in the waiting room, waiting on the doctor to come in, waiting on them to review my case, etc. and I need to stop bothering to bring one because I never have an opportunity to even make it through a paragraph during the whole visit.
