Patient verified via Press Ganey

I've been in pain for 3 years with my wrist and waited a long time for this appointment and after the test was done, he just said it will heal on its own and doesn't think it's carpal tunnel. I tried to say all my concerns and had to ask what to do. But after 3 years I'm told it will just get better no recommendation snow plan no helping ease my concerns etc. He's not rude or bad I just felt very disappointed.
