Doctors always rushing to leave the room . They don't listen or can even hear what you have to say
12/20/2025
I've had VERY LITTLE success with numerous neurologists in the past and I didn't expect much before this appointment. I was pleasantly surprised by how much the doctor was interested in my issue and the detail she went into, in investigating the problem. I thoroughly expected when I first came in that the doctor would just refer me to another doctor and that didn't happen. So far, I'm happy and I hope together we can fix my issue.
