Misdiagnosed. Ask me a couple of questions, made a diagnosis, and prescribed medicine before results were available for urine analysis and bladder scan.  Took medicine and had side effects. Called his office and was told to keep taking medicine. I called a second time the next day and was told to stop taking the medicine.  I quit taking the medicine because I did not trust the diagnosis. I made an appointment with another urologist and after appropriate tests, including a cystoscope, I was diagnosed correctly. I will never go to Dr. Whitehead again.
