He was very dismissive from the start of my appointment. Was rude, rolled his eyes at my primary doctor's mention of lupus. Told me a condition that I tested positive for is "Not worth diagnosing because there is no treatment for it anyway." Said I should take tylenol. He doesn't need to see me again. I do NOT recommend this doctor!
