Internists - Kent, OH

"Dr Bryan Pace is a completely arrogant individual with a Napolean complex, he kind of reminds me of an individual by the name of Hitler... when I first met him he asked me if I did any illicit drugs, which he proceeded to clarify as cocaine, heroin, or marijuana, I answered no, but also added that cannabis aka marijuana is no an illicit drug, to which he replied "I'm not going to argue with you about this", his reaction to this is a perfect example of his narrowmindedness in relation to the use of cannabis medicinally in the state of Ohio... he is one of the problems in medicine today, an individual who refuses to accept the legitimate medical use of cannabis to treat certain medical and mental illnesses... on the morning of my Cath surgery, I told the nurse that I would not be talking any of my morning medications, because they make me sick when taken on an empty stomach... at first this seem to be acceptable, but then I was told that I needed to take them or I could not have the surgery, because the medications were necessary... my reply was that when I had come in a year prior and was rushed back to surgery to have a stint put in, I had absolutely NO medications in my system at that time, so why are you trying to feed me a bunch of bullshit about the medications, is it just that you feel the need to exert your inflated male ego and a serious need to prove you male dominance and superiority over me, just to prove that you have a bigger set of testicles than mine... the simple fact is, I had more than enough blood thinners in me, and I have proof in the form of actual pictures of my blood soaked arm after the nurse viscously removed the needle from my arm, and didn't bother to securely dress it afterwards... very piss poor attitudes of all the individual involved in this situation... I was more than cooperative up to the point where I felt I was being given nothing but misinformation that seemed to make absolutely no sense whatsoever!!! this doctor has a terrible bed side manner, and thinks he knows everything there is to know about medicine, but he is sadly outdated and needs to catch up with TODAYs medicine, including the use of medical marijuana in the treatment of patients!!!"
