My wife suffered a rare injury which disabled her after giving birth to our son and we wanted to get a Specialist to look at her so we made an appointment. When we came in they told us it would be an hour wait. We sat down because we wanted to get the results. A few minutes later they told us our appointment was really next week but we both knew the appointment had been confirmed days before and we were told our wait was now going to be two hours. We waited. When we finally saw the doctor he looked at the x-ray and said it was fine. My wife is sitting in his room with a cane when he says this. I told him we were told from her OBGYN that they only see 4 women in a year with her condition and asked why this happens. He said, ""it just happens to some women."" I told him that was not acceptable. He is a Specialist and was just telling me how many years he studied to do what he does and I was shocked that he couldn't tell me anything was the cause. He said it was hormones. And I asked him then why did this happen to my wife and not all women that give birth. He said it just happens. I could not believe that we waited two hours (with our 3 month old baby) to hear from him that he could not be more specific. He spent most of the brief time we were with him, pretending to be interested in us while at the same time ignoring our questions. When I pressed him to give me a real answer to what was wrong with my wife he became upset and told me not to come back. He even went so far as to tell his assistant to call 911 when I would not accept his non-answers but instead questioned him. I think he is a complete quack with no real answers as to why anything happens which defeats the entire premise of being a doctor, let alone a Specialist. Hands down the worst doctor I have ever been to or heard of. He is truly a joke because he did not offer any real solution. On top of all of this he had the nerve to suggest that if my wife took a bath that would help more than anything. We left upset, disgusted and amazingly disillusioned towards medical professionals. He is not someone you want to ever see.
