I went in today for a colonoscopy, this would was the 2nd one I have had in my life. Everything was going good, the nurses were nice and fun to talk too. I did have to wait for the Doctor to arrive. The Doctor arrived and came in to the room wearing a summer jacket and me who he was, and basically told the nurse to start giving me meds to knock me out. Well, before I knew it I was awake and the Doctor was still doing the procedure. I was in so much pain and I told the people in the room that it was hurting really bad and to please stop. I then heard him telling me that I needed to relax, and I again told them I was in pain and it was hurting really bad, and again I was told to relax, I asked them again to stop. The next thing I recall was waking up and my wife telling me that they could not continue because I was not relaxing, needless to say I am furious! All that prep, and all the time that went in to this was done for nothing, just because they could not keep me knocked out, how the HELL are you going to relax when you are having severe pain like that? They recommended that I reschedule and have it done at the hospital and get it done under anesthesia and that was it and they told me I could leave. First thing I did when I got home was call my Doctor and tell her I was done and never getting this procedure done again and there was no way that I was going to go under anesthesia just for this, because the 2 times that I have been under anesthesia, they have had a heard time waking me up and my recover rate is long. I also want to add, that I was told they were very busy and the doctor had 15 colonoscopies to do that day, so I feel that's why they pretty much pushed me out of the place because I was taking too much time. My wife said when the Doctor talked to her, he pretty much blamed the failure on me, so again I was very upset! The Doctor who did this was Doctor O'Brien. He seemed like a nice guy and I am not saying stay away from him or anything like that, I am just telling you what happened to me, but as I said, I will NEVER have one of these done again and my Doctor was not happy with...
Read moreThis place make me mad, I'm not saying the staff but the doctor really pissed me off. My dad procedure schedule at 12:40pm and they make us wait for 1 hours straight because the doctor is not there. They contact the doctor and not heard anything from him. Once he showed up he didn't even explain his reason for make us wait that long when the procedure is take 5 minute to do. Not counting the time 45min for recovery which I'm supposed to be here for 2 hours and now it become 3 just because he wasn't in. What kind of doctor is he? Making people wait that long. Didn't he know he have an appointment? I'm about to leave the school place but stay because my dad take off work just for a 5min procedure. The doctor we see is Dr. Lopes, ugh so...
Read moreI went in for an endoscopy with Dr. Chris Mulder fall of last year and the entire time he refused to listen to my symptoms, and kept coming up with bizarre medical "phenomenons" for me that weren't accurate to my symptoms at all. And yes I say phenomenon because the illness he thought I might have has very little evidence or research backing it to actually be considered an illness. Yes I checked. Now tell me why a 21 year old woman had to ARGUE with my doctor to get him to believe me that I had no symptoms for that disease and to actually give me the endoscopy my health care provider recommended me to get. He kept rolling his eyes at me, and interrupting me when I was just trying to get help for my stomach and tell him my...
