Would use this practice ( DR ) again,

02/04/2023

She kept insisting that I made an appointment for a certain diagnosis. She started telling me that I didn't have the diagnosis and explaining what the correct diagnosis was. I asked her why she was referring to that and she said because i made an appointment for that. I explained that I did not say that i had that diagnosis, I didn't even know what it was.

01/28/2023

She always looks exhausted. Maybe that's te reason why she is not that friendly.
