General Practitioners - Brighton, NY

"I came into this appointment already so anxious that I had only slept one hour. I had four pages of my own notes so that I did not forget anything that has transpired over the past 3-4 years of my life. I made sure I had my ducks in a row. She walked into the room with a very cold demeanor and said 'What are you here for?' in a quite offensive tone. From that point it was downhill for the next 40-45 minutes of her asking me the same questions repeatedly and me answering the same thing 3-6 times before she actually heard me. Her active listening to my concerns for MY own health were non-existent. She was extremely rough slamming her stethoscope into my back so hard it actually ached. I have NEVER had this awful of an experience with someone in the medical field and I would STRONGLY recommend you seek a Doctor elsewhere. This is a Rheumatologist who does not actively listen to her patients. She made it clear repeatedly she read my chart the night before and her lack of attention to my concerns with my own body made it evident she had a theory before she had ever met me and was not interested in hearing what I have actually been experiencing only questioning things that solidified her theory. Never again."
