I cannot agree more with the lousy reviews ... wish I saw them earlier. \r
\r
I had an ultrasound taken more than 2 weeks ago ... but couldn't get anyone to return my calls to find out what the heck is wrong. I have had acute pain in my lower right abdomen for over 2 weeks now. \r
\r
Here's the story: Having had lots of surgery for ovarian cysts in the past, I suspected I had another one.\r
I waited forever to see that awful ultrasound tech (had to take a vacation day!).\r
\r
Knowing how bad Dr. T. is at getting results back to patients (I still hadn't heard about my annual mammogram done in april - it's June!), I left a handwritten note begging for info soon. I even authorized leaving a message if she was unable to reach me in person. She called a week later - after I repeatedly left her messages - but didn't leave a scrap of info. So, I kept trying to reach her all day, every day. What really got me: I received a letter saying she had tried ""repeatedly"" to reach me! yea, right - LOL! \r
\r
Two weeks later, I received a call from Dr. T., but she said she only had page 1 of a 2 page report. She only had ""the picture - not the notes"". She said it looked like I had uteran fibroids, but she would call me back when the tech came back b/c she wasn't sure how to get the second page to the report ""out of the machine"". \r
\r
Well, the pain persisted - and worsened. I began to think I had apendicitis - so I went to the ER and had a CT scan. \r
\r
It is indeed an ovarian cyst! They gave me some pain meds and told me to follow-up with my Gyn ... I just made an appt. with another practice. \r
\r
oh, Dr. T finally called back and left a message at my work ... to let me know that I had an ovarian cyst and not fibroids on my uterus. She did not leave instructions about what to do for pain or follow-up ...
Pros: Dr. Tahtawi is very nice
Cons: she is the only nice one, wait time is long, follow-up is HORRIBLE
