I went to him multiple times with various symptoms varying from constipation to muscle cramps and even rapid weight loss..The only thing he did was give me a laxative and referrals because he seems to not want to spend more than 5 minutes with you. Finally after severe abdominal pain and a trip to the ER,the Doctor at the hospital was the one to tell me I had all the symptoms of fibromyalgia. This doctor is just a order a test and run away type of guy with zero compassion or interest in his patients.Maybe he should have been a mortician.That way he wouldn't feel so bothered or annoyed by the clientele.
