I have epilepsy and migraines. I went in on my first visit and was perscribed not 1 but 2 medications that I am allergic to even though they were clearly noted and I told him 3 times. I was told they are a new version and I should be ok. A trip to the ER later, thanks to one of the medications causing chest pain, and I still had a migraine. My second appointment the front staff was exceptionally rude during the 3 hour wait in the lobby (and not to mention no patients were going back but the pharm reps sure were!). I was in the midst of an acute migraine so my blood pressure was elevated. When I finally got back to see the doctor I was told that my blood pressure was to high to be seen and that I needed to go to the ER. Now, as someone who has worked in the medical field for over a decade, it was not even close to what is termed a 'hypertensive crisis' but yet I couldn't be seen. I was told to either go to the ER or go home and sleep it off. TOTAL WASTE OF TIME.
