The provider was not friendly, not personable, and not interested in the appointment. I felt as though I was a waste of time. I was extremely uncomfortable because of how much he showed he didn't care. Yes, he was competent, yes, he knew what he was doing, but that's where the positives end. I felt very much like he was just checking things off a list and I wasn't a person at all, just something he had to do that was taking up his time. I was very frustrated when I left because he didn't seem to actually care about me at all. He seemed bored throughout the appointment.

Went a little fast, I have a medical background so I could keep up with most. But covered a lot of information in a short amount of time.

Everyone was helpful and very professional. I appreciate Dr. de Dios explanation as well. Very thankful for you. God bless!

I believe Dr.Dios is very knowledgeable, and I appreciated him explaining diagnostic criteria to me. I did feel a little "rushed", or that maybe my comments/questions were taking too long and he wanted to get through the call a little quicker than the pace I was going at. Overall it was a good experience, and I'm thankful to have some answers-even if it does not change the course of treatment for me.
