I was kept waiting, no big deal, then I was rushed in, no greeting, no bedside manner..asked a few routine questions, looked in my nostrils, spend 6 minutes with me, the entire time rushed and taking phone calls. He told me that I needed a hearing test (for a cough?) and I explained that I'd just had one a month ago and that it was perfect for my age. As if HE needed the hearing test, not hearing me, he insisted that I call his office to schedule the test. I was then dismissed. I relayed this experience to my referring doc who replied "This isn't the first time I've hear this. I won't refer more patients to him. He was simply trying to make money off of you".
