Patient verified via Press Ganey

This provider is prickly and rude. While I understand his frustration on our confusion on a med dose, he did not need to be rude and make us feel like complete idiots. We will be giving him one more chance, as he ordered lab work for 8 weeks; if that appointment goes the same we will be looking for a new PCP.
